Peshtigo Reef
(WI 17)
June 10, 2006
This location marks a long reef that runs across (east-west) Lake Michigan. It originally was a lightship, but when they learned how to pour concrete in water, this quickly was made into a crib light. Hard to get to, we were part of a GLLKA tour of Lake Michigan.
In the larger picture (click on the light) note the brown streak in the water - that's how high the reef is. If you don't pay attention, this is major problem for most any boat.
