Summary

[edit]
Description
English: I present this and others in this journey to tell the story, good and bad shots.

I left my home in Nova Scotia before sunrise and this was my first picture I took on my three day trip. The blurr is because of the chain link fence surrounding the wharfs, I saw the people and continued to find a way in. I found a hole in the fence and went out on the decaying jetties as did many other people going there to fish.

The present front light, a short pepper-pot style tower, was put in place in the 1940s.

Cape Tormentine is the easternmost point in New Brunswick. After the completion of the Federation Bridge in 1997, the Cape Tormentine – Borden Ferry was discontinued, and with it, so were the Cape Tormentine Pier Range Lights. At the request of local fishermen, who still use the harbour, the front light was reactivated in 1998. The Canadian Coast Guard maintains the front light in good condition. It is now declared surplus by the Canadian Government.
