Now that I've donated . (So easy , even though I'm not a 'PAYPAL' member :P ) How about a groovy Gordons cam like C.B. :?: :idea: Perhaps just until Sept. then move it to I.V. for those long over due S.E. :shock:

Regarding webcams: the streaming cams are tricky. The CB webcam was donated by Gdawg and his company multivista.com hosts the web stream, otherwise it would cost ~$200/month or so to stream plus a dedicated internet line. We may be able to do something at Gordons.

I do have a new webcam, we just need to figure out where to put it. Currently the Cow cam and Ogden cams are down.

BWD sails at Nitinat a lot, regularly tucking into those juicy DTL barrels and smacking backside aerials off the lip near the point, so you can understand his enthusiasm for getting another cam going there.
