About Copper Canyon Lighthouse
Also known as: Copper Canyon (Pigeon Point Replica)
This 6-meter cylindrical concrete tower, painted white with black trim, was built in 2016. It stands at the tip of a promontory on the west side of the lake, north of the Copper Canyon narrows. The lighthouse emits a single green flash every second. Its design intentionally reflects the appearance of the historic Pigeon Point Light. The site is open to the public, but the tower itself is closed.
Why it matters: This lighthouse serves as a distinctive visual reference for boaters navigating the lake near the Copper Canyon narrows. Its design intentionally mirrors historic Pigeon Point Light, adding unique architectural appeal to the freshwater environment.
