Gerlach webcam now moop?

Starting on day #2 of BM09 I've tried to see an image from the Gerlach web cam on and off with no luck. It was broke during most of BM09 and now seems to be in permanant "improvement mode".

Does anyone know if the Gerlach cam is now on the moop pile or will it live again someday?

it may take a while.
they need a lift to get up there and I really don't see Taz or Sherry going out with a ladder to fix it.

If you should happen to see Taz on the ladder, I will pay big bucks for photos of that. Keep that camera ready.

that would be quite a sight.

Is there any news on the status of the Gerlach webcam? It was always nice to watch the sun rise over the mountains and feel the connection to northern Nevada.
It would be great if someone, possibly Taz or anyone else takes over this project and gets it done. From what I can see (or actually, not see) the link to the webcam is no longer active.
That was such a great, and inexpensive feature of the BM website.

great picture, but it's ground level now. Can't see the playa :(

I'll take what we can get- at least they won't need a boom to fix it now!

Hey Eric, Taz will not be going up in the boom truck any time soon. I guess I won't be able to see the sun come up over the mountain with the camera down low, but are least I can keep an eye out for anyone trying to vandalize the water tower.
