Lighthouse · Whitefish Point, Michigan
Crisp Point Lighthouse
The tower was first lit in 1904 and is still an aid to navigation. Its light shows one white flash every 6 seconds. A lone tower on the Luce County shore reached by long dirt roads, saved from erosion by a local historical society, which lights it as a private aid from May to November.
