 Doctors Point on the lake's northwest shore was a village and Transformer site, with a large rock painting depicting either the spirit of the winds that rule travel on the lake, or a medicine man turned to stone by the Transformer.As with any large body of water, safe swimming practices should be employed during recreational use at Harrison Lake.The lake may impose a higher risk to recreational users than other BC lakes as it is colder than many of the lakes in the surrounding areas.
