Talk:Winthrop, Washington

Pearrygin Lake a "Swimming Hole"?

I suppose it's a minor quibble but it strikes me that a colloquialism like "swimming hole" isn't really an appropriate description for a lake that has 11,000 square feet of waterfront and a nearly 1200-acre state park attached to it. Even for a brief mention, it seems like it would be more correct to mention the size, attractions, and the existence of the state park along with an external link to the page at Washington State Parks website. Tourism is what drives the town's economy for the most part and it would seem important, to me, to hilight a major tourist attraction rather than play it down. Especially when you have a section titled "Local Attractions". Slickriptide (talk)

Koppen climate classification

Dsb is a humid continental climate, not a continental Mediterranean climate (which doesn't exist). I revised accordingly.
