Canada's Spotted Lake.

Located near the city of Osoyoos in British Columbia, Canada’s Spotted Lake draws visitors from around the world. The calcium, sodium and magnesium sulphate, silver and titanium filled lake creates more than 365 strange pools and patterns during the summer months when the water levels are low.

Long considered to be a sacred healing lake by local First Nations’ groups, visitors can walk through the lake looking at the various pools when the water evaporates during the summer months. The Spotted Lake is believed to be the most mineralized lake in the world and each of the circles hold a different healing cure.

The Osoyoos Indian Reservation are caretakers of the Spotted Lake and visitors must obtain permission from the Okanagan Band before entering the lake area.

Wow! I would love to take the Guides there. What a treat it would be for all. Looks like I've got some planning to do!

To be a caretaker of this lake must be one of the most rewarding things here on earth. What an amazing and beautuful piece of nature...One would be so blessed to be able to visit this lake one day. Maybe sometime in the future I will be able to go meet the Osoyoos and be given permission to visit their beautiful part of earth...

Yeah its beautiful.

This has nothing to do with "divine healing" though, stop poisoning people's minds.

Tim, why would you say it has nothing to do with divine healing? Who are you to make that judgement? If you don't believe in God, that is your right and your business. We don't even know if Hod is who they are referring to. It could be the deity of the Native Americans who are the caretakers. Regardless, mineral waters are almost always healing waters. You can also rephrase it to be in your opinion. Luckily, we ALL are entitled to our own opinions.

I agree with tim

it dosent matter what they are reffering to there is no divine healing
it can be great without being attributed to deitys

The real bummer is the lake is actually right beside the highway leading in to town. Not too peaceful

Ironic use of the term poisoning. The original comments re. divine healing were filled with positivity, yours was full of hate.

Positivity is a known healer, so perhaps you should consider a change of attitude =P

Mineral baths were all the rage in the 1700 and 1800's. People died from things like lead poisoning, arsenic poisoning, etc. Beethoven is speculated for dying for just that reason. Just because there's minerals in these lakes, "natural" minerals, doesn't mean they are divine. In fact, many lakes (not necessarily there) have the potential to make you very sick. They are very pretty, but they could be quite deadly.
