| Other comments: | Crystal clear water to swim in, with swim buoys for sighting.A retired sand quarry so perfect for training, warm and clean. Many great roads nearby to bike and run on for training sessions. Note that the C3 Canadian Cross Training Club with Olympic coach Barrie Shepley is based at this sight so many great resources nearby including bike mechanics. |
