This one courtesy of Cleveland.com. It shows the loop on Raptor today, but it is a roving cam and will show many different views of the park. View it at http://www.cleveland.com/cedarpointcam/

The shot isn't the greatest, but the video makes it very cool. Imagine video on the Demon Drop camera.

Boy, what did CP do- sell the licensing for webcams in the park? ;)

It's webcam-mania at Cedar Point this year!

(They need one looking at MF's line so we can judge the lines... :))

Hey, I love it, the more views I can get the better, since I can't actually get there at all!

It is a good cam. Any idea where it is mounted right now showing the loop?

Wow it is really cool to see the live video feed of a train completing the loop. If only the one on Demon Drop could have that video option...

Is it my computer, or is the real video not working today?

So what's covered by webcams:
Official Site:
MF and Mantis (From Power Tower)
Main Midway (From Demon Drop)

TV 13 Toledo (www.wtvg13.com)
Magnum and Soak City (From Breakers Tower)

Cleveland.Com
Cedar Downs Entrance, Raptor, etc (From Coliseum)

How long before a main gate cam or a VertiGo cam??

It's now on Cedar Downs... :)

I just saw a tractor drive by hauling trash bins. I never thought trash would be so exciting! (you think i'm joking... if you only knew!)

Hopefully as the season keeps going we'll have a cam for every lot in the park!

"Cedar Point announced today a joint venture to bring the most exciting digital adventure known to man, PARKING LOT CAM! That's right, you can see miles of blacktop right from your desktop! Dick Kinzel was quoted 'We think the general public don't really care what the park looks like, they just care how nice our parking lot is.'"

(This is sarcasm, if you believed it, go behind your house and hit your head with a shovel.)

I like this cam much better then the other three. The other cams are two far away form the action and the picture always looks the same. Its much more entertaining to watch the people walk back and forth.

I think a parking lot cam would be great. That way you could judge the size of the crowd and decide if it's worth leaving work early and heading to the park!
