About Petite Traverse Range Rear Lighthouse
The Petite Traverse Range Rear light, established in 1903, is a square skeletal tower standing 20.5 meters tall with a focal height of 32 meters. Its distinctive design includes a trapezoidal daymark painted orange with a black vertical stripe. Located in a forest east of Quebec's Route 132, it is situated 517 meters northeast of the front light. The tower emits a continuous green light. It is located 3.6 km from the nearest port in Contrecoeur.
Why it matters: As a rear range light, it works with its front counterpart to establish a precise line of bearing, critical for safe navigation through a specific channel.
