Is it really testing?! That's pretty early. They actually just moved the cam over and it is facing MF a little now.

Yeah the cam did get moved over a bit. The quality is quite amazing and the view is actually pretty nice. It'll make a nice spot for group pictures :).

Impressive cam, isn't it? I'm pleased with it.

Also, we technically aren't testing any rides at the moment. You may have caught maintenance staff making their trek up or down the tower to begin the re-installation process. Most action begins mid-April.

Power Tower, oddly enough, is usually the first ride that wakes up from winter.

I believe it's just the regular cart. They ride it up and down the tower for maintenance.

Congratulation to Tony and whoever else planned the Pagoda cam angle. I counted 7 rides visible from the shot. Not bad for a view from that low!

The power tower is stuck at the top right now at 12:48pm.

It probably wasn't "stuck". Maintenance rides the cart up when they need to work on the top, and the cart stays up until the workers come down.

Wasn't there a site that had archived loops of the CP cams? I made one myself using images from yesterday / today:

I did when they were building planet snoopy, but i decided to stop since i could not find a free piece of software to grab the images from the webcam.
