Sailing to St. Joseph

Following an afternoon of sailing on Lake Michigan, this boater heads up the St. Joseph River toward the marina. The St. Joseph, Michigan lighthouses clearly mark the entrance to the harbor.

Called "range lights", these two lights help boaters find the entrance to the harbor. Move your boat until the two lights line up vertically (line up the taller light with the shorter light) and head directly toward them to find the harbor in poor weather or darkness.
