Baker Island 1 BB.jpg

Baker Island is seen as the Cranberry Isles and Acadia loom in the backgroun in an aerial photo on Monday. Though not inhabited year-round, Baker Island is home to a lighthouse tower, two privately owned seasonal cottages and the Gilley homestead, which was established in the early 1800s. While Acadia National Park has owned land on the island since 1967, the Coast Guard owns and operates the automated, solar-powered light. They are in the process of finding a nw owner for the lighthouse tower, which was built in 1855 and will most likely go to the park by the end of the year. (BANGOR DAILY NEWS PHOTO BY BRIDGET BROWN)
