Do you enjoy swimming in freshwater?

Salinity varies from place to place and with the currents. The highest salt content I've encountered was in Cancun. Blinding if you got that water in your eyes.
do you live with an Indian tribe in the headwaters of the Amazon where leeches are an issue? don't mind freshwater mountain streams, springs that sort of thing but my preference is saltwater...not to offend those with socialistic tendencies here but my pool is specifically saltwater for the very reason don't wanna swim in chlorinated water, bad for the skin.
Yeah, skip the town of "lake george village," further up the lake is quieter and prettier. the whole area surrounding the high peaks of ADK has some really amazing lakes with some wild lake/boat house setups
christ I'd give her the most mediocre 4 minutes of her lifeHere ya go buddy:
Kiting on the Columbia is pretty awesome; no need to wash the salt off at session's end.
It was kinda okay I guess at netted/observed lakes far from any cover in the mid afternoon once or twice as a kid. I've been meaning to check out some of the springs in North Florida's interior. Mild temperature, netting, and pretty clear.
The alpine stuff with no gators and no cottonmouths looks next-level.

You are terrorized by a potential case of diarrhea? WTF? Got anal sphincter control issues?

Love it! I live on a lake that has close to 150 miles of shoreline, 40 miles long and 1150 feet deep in spots. So many epic nooks and crannies to explore..
we’ve also go a ton of amazing alpine lakes that are so clear the depth is an illusion.

I agree 100%
I grew up in a tidal salt pond in the northeast and in reality I know there is a lot more sh!t in the ocean that can hurt me. But I’m still way more comfortable swimming in saltwater than I am in most bodies of freshwater. I chalk it up to familiarity cause there is not a lot of logic to this reasoning.
Yeah I gotta say deep mountain lakes like Tahoe and Chelan are pretty great to swim in.The great lakes are some of the most perfect swimming conditions you could imagine.
Same goes for some mountain lakes and rivers
Do a bunch of open water swimming, the ever increasing seal population is starting to worry me.
Some of smaller less popular NE mountain lakes are pristine, cool clean water with great smallmouth fishing.
I'm scared of shark-type things, even in fresh water lakes....
