62 holy ****! Mine never gets that low LOL i won't swim in it when it goes below 80



I hope you went saltwater, if not DO IT, it's the best thing I ever did, I wanted to drain my pool and set it on fire until i went salt chlorine generator.

i think that 62 is warmer than it was when it we filled it. the water came out of the yakima/tieton irrigation system (snowmelt from the cascades to rimrock lake on highway 12 direct to the pool)

Nice pool

Don't wait too long to build a fence around it.

Wow, thats really nice, definately worth the wait. I like the detail along the border. Is it heated? How deep is it? Whats the footprint,?
