That is exactly what I was wondering. I knew about the Gerlach cam, but that doesn't show anything. Yes, they have had cams in the past. Where is it this year?

Tarot , it's there on the BM website.

the cam again this year. I have enjoyed it the past 2 years and I do hope for another year. Maybe they are still setting it up. New Gerlach cam is SWEEEET...thanks cam folks for all the hard work for us at home burners...see ya online everyone..420 out

inge, I've downloaded Quick Time and can't get connected! &%*#(
Connecting from the BM webcam, it just says "Disconnected" and then I go directly from the Quick Time player itself, and put in the URL they say, and it says it is not found.

COULD YOU CONNECT?!?!? I have a date to see my friend there tomorrow at 3-4 pm her time. I am dying to see what she wears, since she was working on many different costumes.

AAAaaaahhhhhh frustration is setting in..................

Hi. I was getting the same messages most of the day. I have dial up and can't really get it, but my friends place has highspeed and can load up O.K., but even on hers it was disconnected at times.

Also after installing quicktime-restart your computer.

Hang in there & good luck with viewing your friend. The cam is pointed directly at the man..I saw it for a couple hours tonight...

check ya laterzzz

Same thing here..I find the webcam but can not watch it!

I have an old version of quicktime and can not download the new system because my Mac OsX system is too old! Gosh! Technology is going too fast for me. Oh..and I'm still on dial up because DSL is not availabe where I live ..and that is right smack in the middle of LA!

I will have to find someone before tomorrow night where I can watch this or I will get very sad..
