Altafest
Seul Choix Lighthouse.
Pronounced "Sis-Shwa", with a meaning of "Only Choice" in French, Seul Choix Lighthouse stands guard over Lake Michigan at Gulliver. The station started service in 1892 with a temporary light until 1895 when the present tower was placed in service. The lantern room originally held a 3rd Order Fresnel lens. The lens was replaced in 1973 by an aerobeacon, which itself appears to have been replaced by a more modern LED beacon. Port Inland, a busy port which moves limestone by lake boat during the shipping season, is nearby.
