St George Lighthouse

Welcome to St. George Lighthouse - Is more of a products information website and is not connected with SGRLPS.

Odonnell Entertainment® Adventures of Shadow® Featuring our videos and other products of St. George Reef Lighthouse located in Crescent City, CA. See our products page.

We will still be connected by helping to preserve history of the lighthouse by continue filming once in a while the progress of the restoration of the lighthouse, as we had done since 1996.

Even though we hold all copyrights of all the footage we film, produce and restore - some will show up in parts - like Our "Last One Out, Turn off the Light" program which was restored, added new footage and was turned into widescreen viewing. We are planning on another updated version this year. If things go as planned the program will be in high definition for the first time.

Other video clips will be shown only at the SGRLPS museum at some point after they build it.

Our footage has aired on History Channel®.

St. George Reef Lighthouse

St. George Reef Lighthouse, located six miles off the coast near Crescent City California was built as the result of the sinking of the coastal steamer Brother Jonathan in July, 1865 which took the lives of hundreds of people. Constructed between 1881-1891 it is composed of massive slabs of granite cut on Humboldt Bay, 60 miles south, and transported to the small, exposed rocks at the western end of St. George Reef or the “Dragon Rocks”.

Rising nearly sixteen stories above the sea, it was crowned with a giant first order lens which exhibited first light the night if October 20, 1891. First manned by keepers of the U.S. Service (1891-1939) and then by the Coast Guard (1939-1975) it was considered to be the most dangerous station in the service; 5 keepers lost their lives while on duty there.

Left to the elements for many years, the Fresnel lens was removed in 1983 by the Del Norte County Historical Society and placed in a museum in Crescent City, and then in 1986 the St. George Reef Lighthouse Preservation Society was formed, ultimately flying restoration crews out by helicopter and offering tours of the facility, which started in 1996.
