Canal Cam - Alt

From atop the Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center in Duluth, these cameras provide one of the most intimate views of Duluth's Aerial Lift Bridge and Shipping Canal. Watch ships from around the world arrive and depart the Twin Ports as they traverse the cold waters of Lake Superior. The cameras are owned and operated by the Corps of Engineers' Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center with funding from the Lake Superior Marine Museum Association.

  7. Alternate view is all I can see at my work desk. Please keep it available. I open the CAM before I get my coffee every morning at work !

  8. I wonder how many lights have to burn out or go bad on the break waters before they are replaced.

  10. What is going on with the youtube feed? I can load it fine but you can not zoom in on it at all. The alternate view still allows for zoom though. Had this same issue when the youtube switch was initially made but it was corrected and worked fine until just recently. Now its back to no zoom capabilities like when it started. What could be the cause of this? Thanks for all you do!

    1. Lot's of things can affect streaming quality. Hopefully it settles down.

  15. Does the ask Jeffey tab not work anmore? I usedto be able to read posts all the time, but not anymore. The only way I found these posts was on the Alt view, and not the you tube view, How come? I have been missing reading them Thanks.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Dennis, has something changed? I can't read anymore posts in any of the cams anymore except the canal view alt view. Also with the Ask Jeffrey link, now all it says is to enter your name and e-mail address, and then your question. No more anonyomous? I really miss being able to everybodys posts. I was beginning to wonder where everybody went? Thanks

  17. Hi Dennis,
    What happened to the youtube chat under the Canal Cam? Has it ended for the season? I thought it would continue until the end of September. That is (was) such an active chat, and very informative!

    1. I was wondering what happened to them. That is so totally disgusting that they would do that. They should be caught and made to put them back at their expense!

  20. I love watching the ships coming and going, I don't know why, perhaps it's just good to see people being productive.

  23. Are we stil going to be able to access the alternate view on the Canal Cam? I am not able to get that currently. We are blocked from utube cameras here at work.

    1. Yup -- should be back now--- I had to make some network changes.

  24. I noticed when I am checking the Ship Schedule page, where the blue for the water should be, its gone. It just looks like you are still on land, hard to see where the little boat symbols are now. Sure would be nice if it was how it used to be.
    Thanks Dennis.

  26. Why is that barge looking boat with the crane parked just on the outside of the canal view?

    ReplyDelete
  27. I wish the camera pick up more sound. I love to listen to this as background noise

    ReplyDelete
  28. I wish the cam had an swiper, at the moment the cam is full of snow and I can see nothing,

  30. Hello, any idea why I am getting "This Live Event Is No Longer Available" on all of the webcams on this site, unless I check those that have "alternate view" available? This started yesterday afternoon. Happens on both Chrome and Firefox browsers, but seems to be working fine on Edge. ???

  31. Congratulations to the couple who just got engaged!! Such a cool place!! Really! 17 degrees!!

  32. Any idea why on Chrome and Firefox I am getting "this live event is no longer available" since yesterday afternoon? I can get it on alternative view and on Edge it still works as normal. Just curious if anyone knows why it changed

    ReplyDelete
  33. Did you ever imagine it would come to this?! You and duluthharborcam partners deliver a wonderful, an extraordinary experience. Thank you!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. At some point a couple of days after my post of January 16 everything returned back to normal. Dennis, if you did something, thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Dennis, I noticed that the sound doesn’t seem to working on the canal cam. I tried the bridge cam and the sound works there. Hopefully it will comeback, or fixed?
    Thanks

  37. Did the marine scanner link stop working? The clock / counter never starts and I don't hear anything even though the play button was pressed.

  38. I thought the minimum age for the scooters was 18. Why do I see so many obvious children riding the scooters?
