This TB's goal is to specifically visit (Maine) Quoddy Head Light, near GC8A65 and have it's picture taken along the way to it's goal. Once it has reached Quoddy Head Light it can make it's way back to its owner. Please post pictures of it along its way. Enjoy this TB. - Share it with others, your family, other cachers, etc and please then MOVE IT along to another cache so others may do the same! Please do not leave this at an Event or in a high muggle area cache as I would like to have this for a while.
West Quoddy Head (44°49' north latitude, 66°57' west longitude) in Lubec, Maine is the easternmost point in the 48 contiguous states of the United States. West Quoddy Head is adjacent to the Quoddy Narrows, a narrow strait between Canada and the United States. Since 1808, there has been a lighthouse on the site to guide ships through this waterway. The present one with distinctive red-and-white stripes was built in 1858. Photographs and paintings of this lighthouse are frequently reproduced.
Historical Chronology from Coast Guard web site:
1806: Lighthouse at West Passamaquoddy Head, Maine, first authorized by Congress.
1808: Light station established on 21 April 1808 at a cost of $5,000. The first keeper was Thomas Dexter.
1820: On May 15, Congress authorizes the first fog signal, a 500-pound bell, at the station for a cost of $1,000.
