River Leven Web Cam Sponsored by WCK!

The Leven cam has been kindly funded by the Leven fund and sponsored and located at Windermere Canoe Kayak. The Levels are recorded, displayed and discussed on the rainchasers website.

The Web Cam is perched in our shop window and points towards the shores of Windermere. Because the lake feeds the river it will be possible to gauge its level and sus out what features are working. Eventually there will be a selection of calibration pictures displaying lake and subsequent river levels.

This is what the rainchasers crew had to say about the new cam:

Shorty - 29th December 07

"THis week should be a good we to get calibration photos for the Leven . Neds away for a few days and I wont be passing today, but if anyone is around the Leven and have a camera if you can grab a few shots of interest of the bridge, brick chute etc.. and let me know when it was taken I can try to match it to the webcam. The cam has been moved down a bit, there is a big yacht dolly in the water that we are told wont be moving and gives a good indicator of the water level on the bank of Windereme, looking at it this morning the dolly is covered so I am expecting the Leven to be high. "

Thanks to Ned and Shorty for their continued technical support.
