I don't know there sure were a ton of water skiers out on Utah Lake this weekend for it to be considered a no-no for swimmin. I grew up in Orem, and I've swam in Utah lake down near Lindon Boat harbor on the sandy beaches dozens of times. We used to do a lot of skim boarding down there too. The only complaint I had was sometimes in the later summer/fall there would be an algae bloom of some kind that turned the water a pasty greenish blue. Eeeewww. Seriously though, the water in Utah lake is very clean -- just murky sometimes from the carp and wind churning up mud off the bottom.
