point iroquois lighthouse, chippewa county, michigan

            Low winter sun- -Point Iroquois Lighthouse, Bay Mills Township. A wooden lighthouse was established at Point Iroquois in 1855 in conjunction with the first commercial shipping on Lake Superior. Point Iroquois, Michigan / Gros Cap, Ontario mark the boundary between the St. Marys River and Whitefish Bay / Lake Superior. Point Iroquois was named for the Iroquois warriors massacred by the Ojibway in 1662. The native Algonkin name for the Point is Nadouenigoning- -”Iroquois bones”.

The current Cape Cod Style lighthouse was built in 1870 with a fourth order Fresnel lens in a 65 foot / 20m tower, and was deactivated in 1962. The site is managed by the U.S Forest Service as part of the Hiawatha National Forest, and is open to the public. Point Iroquois is 20 miles / 32 km west of Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan
