That appears to be taken from the lighthouse by the Lower Harbor. I found where it could be, but the camera settings are wrong. It's possible that the camera was zoomed in on the dock at the time, and just isn't now. Here's the link to the Iron Bay webcams. http://www.ironbay.com/lower_harbor_web_cam.htm
It's about half way down the page. If anyone can help further, that would be great!

Hi Jake, Thanks for the cam address. I had that one, but I appreciate it. Check out this picture that someone else put on here. Maybe you know where to find it. Hope so. Thanks again.

The upper harbor can be viewed from the Northern Michigan University website: http://www.acs.nmu.edu/4.3.php
That link is also on the links page off the main page.

The Jackson unloaded stone at the lower harbor very early this morning, then moved to the upper harbor to load ore. Would love to be able to get on that cam where you can see the ore dock. I know there is one but don't know how to get to it. Help would be appreciated.

I think you were looking at the NMU camera. It's posted just outside the city on Mt. Marquette. On the lower right, you can see the lower harbor ore dock. You would have seen the Jackson in the upper harbor. I don't believe she stops in the lower harbor.

Thanks so much Luke. Just came back on to say I found it and it was the lower harbor cam. Saw Herbert Jackson arrive there shortly ago, but where they docked, you can't see on the cam. I was hoping to see some of the unloading, but unfortunately it's not gonna happen this time.
Thanks again.

There are couple different cams here. One is on the Lower Harbor in Marquette, which is downtown.
