The pool is divided into two halves by a movable bulkhead. Both sides are capable of having a six lane 25-yard pool with the other half setup as a 15-yard pool. The deep-end reaches a depth of 12 feet and has two diving boards, while the shallow end is 3 feet to 3.5 feet. The pool temperature is 83-85 degrees. It was built in 1975 as part of the Forward Thrust Movement . The pool is the home site for the Mount Rainier Swim and Dive Teams, all Highline School District Dive Teams, Dive Seattle and Seattle Metropolitan Aquatics Team. In 2018 a new pool shell was added with improvements for water quality and an additional ADA lift for access to both sides of the pool.
