Fort Amherst

Fort Amherst is the lighthouse across the way from Signal Hill. We decided to go and check it out. There wasn't much at the actual lighthouse, just some ruins and steep drop offs, but there were some hiking trails right near it. One of the destinations was 215k away! Yeah, ... can't say I would go down that particular trail.
The first lighthouse in Newfoundland was built at Fort Amherst in 1810. The Current lighthouse was built in 1951.
The harbor has HUGE Ships! In Alaska There was many small ships with a few large, but here it's Many Large ships with a few small.
Love Always,
