After keeping the project under wraps since July, he finally posted pictures yesterday. Since 1945, <a href="http://www.fraternitysnoqualmie.com/?ref=dev.cascadepbs.org">Fraternity Snoqualmie’s Family Nudist Park</a> located near Issaquah on Tiger Mountain, has provided nudists a place to be free. For many, nudism (also known as naturism) isn’t about sexuality. Nudists enjoy the beauty of the body, regardless of how perfect or imperfect it may be.Stead writes that the fraternity enforces a strict set of rules and all visitors are subject to a background check. Registered sex offenders are not allowed. Every year, a “Bare Buns Fun Run 5K,” is hosted on the property. Rumor has it that the run is a gateway for first timers to join the frat.
