Summary

[edit]
Description

I was delighted when I saw on the distant horizon the tiny speck that is the St. George Reef Lighthouse.

From Crescent City Ca. the lighthouse is 6 miles out to sea. From where I took the photo in southern Oregon it was 8 miles out.

Construction on the lighthouse began in 1884 and was completed in 1891. It stands 75 feet above the sea. Waves have crashed over the top. (The photo is cropped)
