Easy access by a car. Only 2 minutes walk from free parking.

This is a webcam cache located in Yamanashi-Pref (Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park) .

I got permission from the owner who has this Webcam. So I decided to set this as a Webcam cache.

The easiest way to log this cache is with the help of a partner.
You need to stand at the cache site and calling your friend at the computer.
Meanwhile your partner saves your picture with your GPSr from this website, which displays realtime: (visit link)
(partner's computer needs to install plug-in software).
The webcam can move the direction(almost 60 degrees) after the plug-in had loaded.

I recommend checking the website before you go to make sure it is working.
When the camera is down, they post pictures from a previous day, so check the date on the pics to make sure it is running live.
If it is NOT up and running, just wait for another time.
Post your picture when you log your visit on the cache web page if you want credit for "finding" this cache.

The owner of this cam said to me that this cam will change to 360deg movable cam some day..

Enjoy to see the Mt.Fuji from this point!

所有者の許可が出ましたので、山梨県にWebCamキャッシュを設置しました。 (^^)
特に他のWebCamキャッシュとの違いはありません。GPSを持った自分の画面を誰かに
キャプチャしてもらい、その写真をアップしてくださいね。
道路沿いに無料の駐車場があります(駐車場からは徒歩2分程度です)。

WebカメラのURLは&#12289 (visit link)
このカメラは、動画ですのでプラグインソフトウェアを導入していただく必要があります。
プラグインは、インストールされていなければ上記のURLから導入できます。

おでかけ前には、あらかじめこのWebCamが正しく動いているか否かを確認されることを
お奨めいたします。

このカメラのオーナは、「360度見えるものに変えて富士山も見えるようにしたい。」
とおっしゃっていますが、かなり高価らしく導入時期は未定とのことです。
このあたりは観光名所が沢山あります。御家族連れでいってらっしゃいませ。 (^^)/

We took Webcam Photo!

I went to this Webcam place with Bun34-san.
I announced the visit this Webcam beforehand to the friend by brightkite on the day.
Then, hani0-san and lotusHoshino-san cooperated!!! ]:)]

Fortunately, it was possible to take a picture of this place for myself because mobile-phone electric wave was able to be received!

Thank you for the Webcam cache!

I am left man.

We prepared from home and set up a script that would take a screenshot every 10 seconds of the browser having the webcam page open. But, we found out that the script failed just 10 minutes before we planned to check out of The Hotel Fujiyama (which is a great place to stay near the cache). So I almost gave up, but quickly emailed the URL to a Japanese friend. Then we left the hotel and I tried to call my friend. He didn't answer. But suddenly he called and said "Hi, I see you on the webcam". He didn't know anything about geocaching, so "Long story short, can you take a screenshot of the webcam page?" As you can see, he could :-)

First webcam cache done! Thanks for the cache!
