Our primary focus is the advancement and preservation of the Arts and the Environment through the use of digital technologies.

Webcam imagery assist mountain drivers to judge the weather and driving. We are providing a "bird's eyes" view of Idyllwild from four webcams. The first is located near the town center of Idyllwild. The second cam location is in our nearest town, as the crow flies, Hemet. The third locale is 180 degrees in the opposite direction, Palm Springs. The last is located about a mile out of town on Highway 243. The live webcam image below is from Georgias. Georgia's webcam is facing south and the street you see is our main drag, North Circle Drive. If you walked down 100 yards to the right, you would find yourself in town center. ![]() ![]() *Hemet Webcam Above ![]() ![]() Palm Springs Webcam Above Here are some more webcams that you might find interesting: Indian Wells Pine Mountain Catalina Island Wrightwood Hwy 2 Cam Wrightwood Town Center Abbey Road Joshua Tree Old Faithful Geyser Longs Peak, Rockies North Pole South Pole McMurdo Station, Antarctica Bear Cam Mt.

Below is a recent satellite image of the Western United States and the Pacific Ocean. The image is updated roughly every thirty minutes or so and in case you are curious, the GREEN CIRCLE is centered on Idyllwild, California. Animations for last 4 hours, last 12 hours and last 24 hours are also available. Now Captured: Wed 6:50 AM Mar 10, 2010
*** To view animation, click on 4 HR, 12 HR or 24 HR tab and move mouse pointer anywhere near the green circle on satellite image and wait a few seconds for the animated weather to start. THE IDYLLWILD SCRAPBOOK An area of multimedia that we think doesn't get the attention it should is that of 360 degree panorama photography. It simply is the best way to artificially visualize a subject, whether its a landscape, a family photo, or a product shot. The Idyllwild Scrapbook has about 30 such photos in its album. Enjoy !!
Panoramas One of the great things to do in Idyllwild is to photograph. Its seems everything is worthy of a snapshot. Over the years, we have organized about 400 favorite photographs and Quicktime VRs (panoramas) and placed them into a new, searchable online format. The Green Cafe proudly presents ...

PLANET RISE / SET TIMES IN IDYLLWILD Idyllwild is a wonderful place to 'gaze' at the stars, planets, and the moon. Below are the rise & set times (24 hour format) of all the planets in our solar system. The celestial bodies are arranged in chronological rise time order and can be experienced in the Idyllwild area by looking in the lower southeast sky (towards Garner Valley). If the name of the planet is in purple, then it is currently visible under suitable conditions. To view the setting planet, look in the lower southwest sky, towards Hemet.
