Found some air quality webcams, one which is labeled 'cucamonga' and one labeled 'cucamonga south' The one with some mountains in the background, can anyone figure out if this is Cucamonga or something else?

Cucamonga, CA

The Cucamonga digital camera system was installed near the Mt. Wilson Observatory in September 2001. Web-based real-time monitoring began in 2008. The camera views San Gorgonio Mountain ~115 kilometers to the east. Associated ozone data are collected from the California Air Resources Board Pico Rivera air quality station located near Pico Park, CA. Meteorological data are obtained from the NOAA weather station located at the Mount Wilson Observatory.

Cucamonga South, CA

The Red Mountain real-time pan/tilt digital camera system was installed southeast of Hemet, California, in September 2003. The camera pans to the north-northwest to view Diamond Valley Lake and the Cucamonga Wilderness, ~105 kilometers in the distance. Associated ozone data are collected from the South Coast Air Quality Management District station located in Perris. Meteorological data are obtained from a private weather station in Hemet.

Nice find, Joseph. If you click on the "Map It" button, you'll see a map with a little camera at the end of a large pink cone. So the "Cucamonga" camera is located near Mt. Wilson and is looking southeast. "Cucamonga South" is located near Hemet and is looking northwest.

Right to left I think it is: San Jacinto in the distance, Monrovia Peak et al in the foreground, San Gorgonio in the distance, Ontario Peak obscuring Cucamonga, the 3T's (or at least some of them), then Baldy/West Baldy.

I made a little post that consolidates a few of the live webcams. Nothing fancy.

Looks like the Newcomb Rim Trail was bulldozed (or are my landmarks wrong?):
