Camera Update

The Harbor Cam and GLA cam will be viewing Bayfront Park for the weekend to watch the Balloon Festival. The rest of the cameras will be watching boat traffic as usual.

There was no boat traffic yesterday, however, it should be busy today.

This weekend will be nothing but hot air around Duluth

With the Duluth Balloon Festival starting tomorrow, 12 hot air balloons will be taking center stage at Bayfront Park.  Last evening, although the weather wasn't good for the balloons, a couple of the balloonist did show us some of the rather impressive blow torches use to create the lift for the balloons.

There is going to be a very unique event going on in Bayfront Park this coming weekend. The first ever Duluth Hot Air Balloon Festival where 12 large hot air balloons will occupy Bayfront Park with their beautiful colors and glowing lights.
I will be turning some of the cameras to view the balloons as they float in the air tethered to the ground.  I will also be there taking pictures and updating this website, so, stay tuned.
