Medical Lake LoopMedical Lake was named for its high mineral content - believed to have healing powers. American Indian tribes brought their sick to the lake and extracted its minerals to use as medicine. The City of Medical Lake was founded in 1872 by Andrew Lefevre who discovered the lake while searching for lost sheep, and decided to bathe in it. He found that the pain from his rheumatism was gone, and thus named the lake “Lac de Medicine.” Pets must be on a leash on pathway and are not allowed in parks.
