Battle of Woody Point

The Battle of Woody Point was an incident in 1811 in western Canada involving the Tla-o-qui-aht natives of the Pacific Northwest and a United States-registered merchant ship of the Astor Expedition. After trading in the region for furs, the American vessel was massacred by the natives and scuttled by her crew off Vancouver Island, in Clayoquot Sound.
