Juneau Webcam New Dock Activity

[Tinknock50]

Another beautiful day..... so calm,hardly a ripple on the water.:)

 

How do I do a photo capture to post here?

Probably best not to, as that material is copyrighted, and there's a warning not to repost.

Hmmm....interesting since so many have already done that in this thread.

[Tinknock50]

oops....looks like the crane is back up. Must still have work to do. But it can't be too much because it looks like it is mostly there.

[Tinknock50]

What kind of work are they doing now??

Looks like they might be replacing the ramp (seen in lower left quadrant of this screenshot from last fall). This is where the tenders drop off/pick up passengers.

 

 

Screenshots from the PTZtv webcams have been posted on many different threads on Cruise Critic as well as on Facebook for a number of years. PTZtv has never complained. Perhaps they look at it as free advertising???

Thanks. That may be part of redoing Marine Park too perhaps.

That is not the tender dock. It is the dock for the float planes to Taku Lodge. I think the tender docks are more centrally located among the docks.

Actually I think that is the tender dock. The one for the float planes is at the bottom of the screen shot out of view.

Scroll down from the web cam and on the right side are some pictures. There is one titled.Crane lift of new ramp for @TakuLodge#WingsAirways float plane docks now underway on

That is the ramp they are replacing that you showed in the old picture of the dock. I can't imagine tender drop off and having the Taku lodge floatplane sharing that tiny dock (unless they are planning an enlarged dock).

 

Then there are separate docks, as you say out of view, for all the other float planes. Again I can't imagine tenders jockeying for position against the numerous plane dockings while ships are in port.

Ok...I did a search and we are both right, It is the Taku Lodge float plane dock, but it is ALSO used for tenders.

I really appreciate your links to the photos of what is taking place at Juneau. I am trying to decide whether I ought to attempt the Taku Lodge float plane trip or not. Getting into and out of the plane without falling into the drink or injuring myself is my concern. Being able to watch what takes place when the season starts with these flights ought to be of much help for me.

I have never done the Taku Lodge excursion, but everyone who has just raves about it.

[Tinknock50]

In the current camera view, you can see the girders of the new ramp on the left. Is it just setting there temporarily or has the location for that ramp changed?

Maybe it's just my browser but all the screen clips from PTZ look to have been mostly redacted. Edit: Pictures are back! Weird. :confused:

 

Looking forward to seeing the new dock even if Oosterdam is using CT and first arrival is May 2nd so I will have to watch the feed that day. Amsterdam used to use AS and still will every other week but "O" is bigger. Still planning to walk by there on way to The Hanger to take a picture of the web cam. ;)

 

See ya there Tinknock50.

Yep....see you there! Less than 2 months now!

Hey the barge crane by the docks is gone! You can see along the full length of both new docks. It's done!

[Tinknock50]

We all need to be watching this cam on

 

Monday, May 1

 

13:00 22:00CT-JNU NIEUW AMSTERDAM

 

13:00 22:00AS-JNU EURODAM

 

 

The first ships of the season!...... and at the new docks.....and only about a couple of weeks away!

[Tinknock50]

Looks like the the tender dock has been removed and no sign of a replacement. (so far anyway)

 

The float plane dock did get a nice new ramp connected to their building.

 

I am wondering if, because the bigger ships will project their bows closer to that area, that tenders access would be too tight?

[Tinknock50]

The final barge crane is leaving now!

Although they may just be re-positioning it.

 

Looks like they are back to doing some work.

 

Pulling up some cable now.

Picking up long poles and putting them on deck.

 

Now putting one back in the water.
