The purpose of this website is to give you a true "Hillside View" of the Aerial Lift Bridge and the Duluth Harbor. This is a companion site to my photography website: Northern Images (northernimages.com) which is dedicated to photography of the Duluth area and Western Lake Superior.
Growing up in Duluth, the love of Lake Superior and the harbor is built within me. The nautical heritage of the "Head of the Lakes" grows on you and the need for a "Lake Superior" fix never goes away. I use these cameras every day to check the boat
The best part about this website is that I can share this view with you, especially those of you who have that same love for the lake and harbor that I do. I consider myself very blessed to be able to operate this website and to enjoy the view whenever I like. I hope you enjoy the view as much as I do.

The helicopter shots are great ! What is the dock just inside the harbor on the right that some of the boats stop at, before going further inside and around the corner to the right, out of sight?
ReplyDeleteThe dock that some of the boats stop at upon arrival is a marine fueling station where they get their fuel tanks topped off.
ReplyDeleteYou should enter this. You're probably one of the finest photographers out there. Just great stuff! Thanks.....

at one time there was a narrated "history of the harbor" here...where did it go?
ReplyDeleteHolly,
ReplyDeleteThe Harbor Histpry presentation is now listed under Links--I just put it back on for you!
Dennis
thank you, dennis!
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to have a camera placed at the other entrance/exit to the harbor also?
ReplyDeleteThe question of a camera at the Superior Entry has come up before and I am checking into the possibility. That would be a great addition, but, we'll see how it goes.
ReplyDeleteIs there a plat of the harbor with all docks and shipyards marked? I would also like to see more St Louis harbor activities, I love seeing the Big Boys come and go
ReplyDeleteYou might try contacting the Seaway Port Authority to see if they have any maps available.
