Most of the graticule looks more or less like this.

This graticule is located off the Oregon Coast to the west of Pacific City, Tillamook, and Cannon Beach. It is almost entirely taken up by the Pacific Ocean. However, to its extreme southeast there are a few square miles of land north of Lincoln City that fall within the graticule. Also, roughly 25 miles to the north, the extreme tip of long, slender Cape Lookout pokes into the graticule.
