Fair enough. I glanced at the wiki page for sport=equestrian sport=equestrian before I added it but that left me unsure of exactly what to do for a rodeo arena

I've been marking areas with woody stemmed plants that are waist height or lower as "heath" and woody areas higher than that as "scrub" (or else as "wood" once it is tall enough to branch overhead)

Oh shoot I think I've somehow broken the surrounding forest relation with this changeset. I will try to figure out what I did wrong and get it fixed up.

Assuming this is referring to Crescent Beach: Crescent Beach used to be a normal sandy beach area much closer to Lakeshore Drive when the lake level was higher. As the water level dropped the area is now more of a reedbed than a beach.

That area of the lake is still named Crescent Beach even though it isn't really a proper beach anymore.

Sandy Beach and Long Beach were also differently shaped when the lake level was higher. They both have sand brought in from other sources to maintain them as the lake level has changed so they are partially man_made.

Hotel Beach is the official public beach area of White Bear Lake Resort. It appears on their maps of the area. There isn't anything geographically unusual about it. It may have additional sand added from other areas to maintain the beach as the lake level changes so I guess it is partially man_made
