Description
Point Atkinson Lighthouse in West Vancouver. This lighthouse is at the northern end of the Burrard Inlet. The current building was erected in 1912, although there has been a lighthouse on the site since 1875.
The light in the lighthouse is very faint, so it was *very* dark when I took this -- I was glad I had a torch to make my way through the woods back to the car. Also was probably only about 5 minutes away from getting my feet wet -- the route back from the rock I was standing on was rapidly disappearing under the rising tide!
