Canal Park is a cool place!

Fire and Ice!

December Sunrises are stunning displays of God's creations.  What better time view it then below zero on the shores of Lake Superior.

I thought I would try a quick snapshot with my IPhone from the Lakewalk.

Safe Shelter - Whitefish Point

Many of the large boats on Lake Superior are now hiding out from the frigid arctic blast on the east side of the lake near Whitefish Point to shelter from the strong west winds.

Pier B Yurt Timelapse 2016



How to build a Yurt in 2 minutes!
Pier B Resort constructed a Yurt over the weekend while the Pier B harborcam recorded a timelapse of the three day process.

Cold Weather Beauty

With cold weather settling in for the week, there should be some great views of ice covered boats, sea smoke rising and incredible sunrises.  With air temperatures barely rising above zero deg F this week, the winter beauty of Lake Superior will be on full display.

Hopefully we don't get any cameras shutting down for cold weather protection, but, it is possible.


Happy boat watching.

Video resolution increase

I have increased the video resolution a bit on the canal and bridge cams.  If it creates any major problems with your streaming, let me know as a reply on this post and I will scale it back.

I am just experimenting with the cameras.
