Guess which photo is of a legal dog swim in Okanagan lake? It would be the one with my grand-daughter Carrie at Cedar Creek off-leash Dog Beach. We had many fun times swimming at the Cedar Creek beach. And, almost year round swimming for Mickey. I don't believe this has been used as a nude beach for many years.
Top left is the Dog Beach at the Fintry Campground.
The Hardy Falls photo is before pool was fenced off - also early summer, prior to the Kokanee spawning.
Mickey jumping and hilltop photos was the top of Knox Mountain - before it got fenced off to pathways only.
Diagonal swim photos and Mickey with birth/death dates is at Arlington Lake - Hwy 33.
Walkway in the forest is a photo of Mickey sauntering on his way to the Pacific Ocean on Haida Gwaii.
Photo not shown: Mickey having one of many illegal swims in Okanagan Lake at the foot of Cadder Avenue. He was given (and obeyed) the "No Pee" command before stepping on the sand of the beach access and swam and fetched the ball many warm summer mornings.
Thanks for trying Charlie Hodge, but I would not let Mickey swim in the Lake at Kinsman Beach - beside the beautiful Maude-Roxby bird sanctuary - as the water is full of parasites there. Or beside the Tolko mill or beside the Rotary bird sanctuary. I won't swim there either.
