Cheboygan Crib Light

The last stop on the Shepler/GLLKA Lighthouse Cruise was Cheboygan Harbor. After a little tour showing the facilities and the docked ships, we returned to Mackinaw City and our cars.

I photographed this light a few weeks back (several times, actually), but not from this angle. When the Coast Guard decided to remove the light from its wooden crib outside the harbor, the city apparently protested; the locals had come to think of the light as the city's mascot. So the Guard moved the light to the pier, and the city is now responsible for maintaining it.
