Leuty Lifeguard Station

The Leuty Lifeguard Station is still the headquarters for many of Toronto's lifeguards and the staff have been credited with saving over 6,000 lives during the Station's 100-year history.

Beautiful image. Love all the fun looking things like boats, kayaks and water. Love the clouds also.

It does look well maintained. One would think there wouldn't be much need for lifeguarding on a lake but I guess it can get dangerous!

Nicely captured! I don't think I've ever seen anything comparable in the states.

Is this a training station for the lifeguards? Beautiful place, looks very organized. There is a shortage of lifeguards down here.

@maggiemae Well, it is a pretty big lake; about 310km long, and 85km wide and with a maximum depth of about 240m in places.

@gardencat We have a large lake called Whakatipu in NZ and its 380 deep in places but only 80km by 5km. I guess yours is a heap bigger!

@dutchothotmailcom - I'm sure they've probably trained a number of life guards here - but the story behind this iconic hut is amazing - https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/leuty-lifeguard-station-100-years-1.5669259

@marlboromaam - thanks - not quite the same, but the iconic life guard huts on Miami beach are quite nice :)
