yup it does......the big okanagan lake runs from vernon (north) to kelowna (central) to pentiction (south)...pentiction is on a natural land bridge between the south end of the okanagan lake and skaha.....skaha is quite a bit smaller...but still a really great lake......
there is a channel between the two lakes......but they dont allwo boats thru....however you can tube down the channel between the two lakes.....there is even a bus that (a big one) will take you back to the starting point......the channel hosts over 100,k tourists tubing it a year.
skahas calm waters host a lot of major events from dragon boat racing to iron man competitions....its also a major party spot for the locals in pentiction
there is another series of lakes seperated by a mountain to the east of our area....its called kalamalka lake......(the lake of many colors) kal has been voted by national geographic magazine as the 3rd most beautiful lake in the world.....
again, a natural land bridge seperates kal and woods lake. there is a boating channel between the two lakes....its a big thrill to boat thru the channel for first time visitors...the cahnnel is only 30 feet wide and very shallow....with a road bridge that you boat under........one of our forum members called shawn floats has property at the campsite that the channel goes thru....its called tween lakes resort
on any given day in the summer.....kal and woods are 5-10 degrees warmer than the okanagan or skaha lakes
the water in kal is so clean you can drink it......you can see at least 30 feet down....that is really unuasual for a inland lake.......ill get some pics next time i drive by
cheers
