Northland references a lighthouse at Point Colpoys (she spells it Point Colpois though). It doesn't seem to have an on line history but it is referenced in some databases of Alaskan Lights.

Light is still existing nowadays: https://fishing-app.gpsnauticalcharts.c ... /-133.1984
I've added the light to geonames and our db and updated Point Colpoys position, which was a little off... the light is faintly visible on bing satellite imagery, google one is too blurry in that area. Thanks!
