[edit] What?

Regarding Okanagan Lake article, I don't think it is accurate to say that Penticton borders Okanagan Lake to the south. Penticton borders Skaha Lake (technically connected by the Okanagan River), and you have to drive through Summerland and Peachland before you hit Okanagan Lake. I also question whether it is accurate to say later in the article that it is "next to" Canada's only desert ecosystem. The desert ecosystem doesn't start until you hit Oliver, almost 60 km. south. mersh@intelics.com

• I suggest you check a map. Penticton sits squarely on the small piece of land between Okanagan and Skaha. As for the desert ecosystem, I thought the (provincial?) park where the Skaha Bluffs are located east of Penticton qualifies as a desert...? --Stéphane Charette 07:25, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
