Lighthouses of Lake Michigan

68 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.
