lighthouse of the year...McGulpin Point just the other side of the Mackinaw Bridge near Mackinaw City. I didn't think this was going to be a big lighthouse year....but you never know...when opportunity knocks....you need to run to the door!
This was by FAR the easiest climb, at only 44 steps, I didn't even need to rest at the landings :-) It's right close to the drop off of a cliff, so you really can't even see the beach as the trees below hinder the view. After only 1 year of construction, it was lit in 1860 with a fixed 3&1/2 order Fresnel lens that was visible fr

A view from one of the landings to the steep trail below that leads to the shores of Lake Michigan. Looks like something that should be investigated!
