Dossin Great Lakes Museum is located on Belle Isle, an island which is a Detroit City park. This maritime museum has exhibits that depict life along the Detroit River and the Great Lakes. Inside you will be impressed by things like the Gothic Room, a complete room taken from the luxury steam wheel liner City of Detroit III, which was built in 1912. Another main attraction of the museum is the complete pilot house from the freighter S.S. William Clay Ford which is built into and is part of the building structure. From the pilot house you can view the Detroit River channel and the Windsor Ontario Canada shore line. This pilot house is also where this webcam is mounted on the to along with weather station equipment.
Outside, on the museum grounds you will also find exhibits including early ship cannons, anchors, a Coast Guard boat and Miss Pepsi, a Hydroplane race boat which competed here on the Detroit River in some the Gold cup Races that run on the river each year. A focal point of the court yard is also the place you will visit for this web cam, the anchor from the infamous freighter, the S.S. Edmond Fitzgerald which went down in Lake Superior, November 10, 1975.
To log this webcam you will need to visit the posted co-ords which should put you just in front of the anchor of the Edmond Fitzgerald. Once here you will need to either be able to go on line yourself from this location, or you will need to phone a friend that can go on line to capture your photo from the web cam. A photo from your own camera will not be acceptable; it will have to be a webcam photo.
