The web cam page has two separate programs--the weather station and the web camera.  Being in the mountains, we experience challenges with the internet connection so you may not always be looking at current conditions.  In viewing the weather information--viewing date and time are displayed.  In viewing the web camera, if the camera is active you will see a tiny red box in the upper left corner of the photo box that flashes every few seconds.  If you see the red box, you are seeing a live view.  Following each lengthy power outage the system must be reset--be patient please, we are generally aware it is not functioning properly.

There are two options for viewing the web picture.  Both views will allow you to see the activity and weather just outside the Outpost.   Before selecting an option, please recognize that the camera activity will automatically change every ten or so seconds.  Once you have selected the viewing option you prefer, bookmark it under your “Favorites” for easy future access. 

The first/easy viewing option results in a slight disconnect each time the camera uploads a new picture. 

Viewing Option 1 -  Click Here

The second/more advanced viewing option eliminates the disconnect between uploads but requires that your computer has the Java downloaded and installed. If the picture loads when you click on Version 2, you’ll know you already have Java. If you see a grey box where the camera picture should be, you are attempting to view the picture without the proper Java being downloaded to your computer. 

** In order to view the live web cam you will need to download "JAVA" from the internet.  Do a search for  "Java" and follow the instructions on how to download the free version.
