The Washington State Department of Natural Resources has published evacuation walk time maps for potential tsunamis in key Washington areas. Modeled on a magnitude 9 Cascadia earthquake, the maps use colours to indicate how many minutes it would take to walk to safety at a moderate pace within these communities. The maps are freely available online.
