-In- The Lake
Pic taken earlier this summer:

This light ended up being in the lake at a park.. the area where it is would normally be a boat-dock/parkinglot. {I would assume they cut power to the lots once the water started getting close}
I believe this and all the other original lights there are still MV as well. I know they were the last time I saw them on.

The lake itself is used for flood-control , so parts of the park  do end up flooded on the uncommon wet year we get. (its never happened, but this light and plenty of others could theoretically end up being way under water if the dam was full to its spillway (never even come close, its pretty much impossible for that to happen, given how much water it would take)

What lake?

Chatfield - At the west boat docks.
The water level is back to normal now though.

It was at some point another 5-6 feet higher than shown in the pic here (at that point you couldn't get to this area since the road was closed/under-water)

Update:
This light is gone now Sad , along with all the others in the parkinglot... and for that matter the lot itself is gone too

Update: Construction of the new higher parkinglot was completed last summer, the new lights are LED like this one #360
