Cape Blanco State Park, Oregon
This isolated lighthouse holds five Oregon records: it is the oldest continually operating light, the most westerly, it has the highest focal plane above the sea, (approx. 250 feet), James Langlois has an unmatched tenure at any other West Coast lighthouse (42 years) and Oregon’s first woman keeper, Mabel E. Bretherton signed on in March 1903. (Cape Blanco Heritage Society)
