A flat olive and yellow ferry with rows of dark windows runs along the bottom of the front, above a pale blue wave at the left.

A red half-sun with short red rays rises behind a blue hill at the left of the side face.

A tall yellow-green triangle with a dark triangle at its top stands on a red vertical post in the middle of the side face.

A small yellow-green fish with a dark tail swims at the right edge of the side face, below blue mountains.
- 11Domed building Back view
A red building with a dome, a small lantern on top and a white columned porch stands at the lower middle of the back face.

STARBUCKS runs up the face beside the handle in black capitals.

Collector notes
- The name sits in small red capitals on one face with no script or logo; the same face carries the orca, the ferry and a wave, while the apple, bicycle, sun and fish are on the side, and the domed building and tulip are on the opposite side of the handle.
- The drawings are flat shapes in pale blue, olive, yellow-green and red with no outlines, which is the You Are Here look. Look for the lettering WASHINGTON, the ferry along the bottom and the red apple to tell this mug from the Discovery Series Washington mug.
- The catalog lists more than one Washington mug across series (Discovery Series Washington, Been There Series Washington, and Washington D.C. mugs in You Are Here, Discovery and Icon). This one is the state mug: the apple, orca, ferry and evergreens, not a monument skyline.
