About Ange-Gardien Range Rear Lighthouse
This steel skeletal mast stands 14 meters tall and is painted orange with a black vertical stripe. Its light is visible for 14.2 nautical miles. The Ange-Gardien Range Rear light emits a single green flash every 7 seconds. It forms part of a navigational range system, working with a front range light to guide vessels. Mariners align the two lights vertically to confirm their position on the correct course. The structure's design is functional, prioritizing navigational accuracy over visual prominence.
Why it matters: This range light is indispensable for commercial and recreational vessels navigating the specific channel it marks, ensuring they maintain a safe course and avoid grounding or collision. Its function as a rear range light provides precise directional guidance, which is critical in maintaining the integrity of shipping lanes in the area.
