Pacific Entrance Range Rear Light, 1914. Inactive since 1962(?). Roughly 25 m (82 ft) round concrete tower with lantern and gallery, painted black. This lighthouse is similar to the well-known Gatún Northbound Rear Light (see above), but it is abandoned and possibly endangered by canal expansion. Located about 1.6 km (1 mi) southwest of the Miraflores Locks. Site status unknown. ARLHS PAN-031.
