The Lighthouses of Door County WI : Lake Michigan Road Trip
If you spend any amount of time traveling around the Great Lakes, you'll quickly realize the importance they once (and still do) served as a shipping and transportation hub of the central part of the United States. In the mid-late 1860's a series of lighthouses started popping up on the shores of Lake Michigan.
During a recent trip around Lake Michigan, the 50 Campfires team decided to stop by and check out these historic light houses that are sprinkled across the Door County landscape. There's definitely something mysterious - yet intriguing about these beacons of light that help ships safely pass the rugged shores of this great lake.
Thanks to the Door County Maritime Museum for the primer! If you're in Sturgeon Bay, be sure to stop by and check out their exhibit:
