JC camera

Hey Low & slow, how about driving up to JC and wiping the ice and snow off the camera for us so we can check JC every day. You have a lot of spare time i figure and it should only take about 4 hours to drive up there. Unless you have skis on your plane. :lol:

That's funny! :D

Not 30 seconds before I read this I was doing my morning tour of the webcams and said to my wife, "Hey, do you think it has snowed at JC?" as I tipped my laptop towards her to show her the JC site.

I'll second that nomination for L&S to make a lens cleaning run.

I'll see what I can do. I spent 12 hours yesterday, and another 8 today driving the loader around the airport trying to clean up after that storm. Not sure how much we got, but the ski hill reported 27" in 24 hours!

I'm having strange problems with the JC camera. Is anyone else experiencing this. I get Sawtooth camera, a graduating class picture and all sorts of strange stuff coming up when I click on JC. Maybe it's my puter. if I keep clicking on the site different shots come up and sometimes it comes up JC but strangely different.

Thanks, keep checking, I'm there every day.

Iceman, you weren't by chance in the area just before thanksgiving were you? I had someone ask me to relay for them to the Flying B that they were inbound for dinner, and the only name they would give me was iceman.

Take care,

John

That's just the beginning. Once it's big enough, maybe I'll make some sort of snow sculpture for everyone.

How about sitcking a BCP tee shirt on a pole in that pile? Get it damp inside then open the door and freeze it solid! It'll stick out just like a flag in a gale. By the look of the weather observations at MYL, it ought to stand out straight until Easter, if not Memorial Day.
