Many of you who have made trips with us are familiar with the lighthouse at Five Finger Islands. It’s been a work in progress by the Juneau Lighthouse Association to restore and maintain this very historic structure sited in beautiful Frederick Sound. It’s been fun to watch on our visits as the renovations continue and progress is made.

Alaska Sea Adventures web maestro, Dr Jeff Reynolds, has been graciously working on a very much needed major update of the Five Finger Lighthouse web site. Be sure to check it out and remember that they are always glad to have your much needed and appreciated memberships and/or contributions.

Whale researcher, Dr. Fred Sharpe with the Alaska Whale Foundation, is working on a plan to use the lighthouse as a base for local whale research this coming summer. We may now have other faces along with keeper Ed to greet us on our visits!
