(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) A boater heads into Utah Lake from Lincoln Beach on Thursday, July 29. Toxic algal blooms can sometimes form on the lake with the Utah County Health Department issuing health advisories for recreators being advised not to swim, waterski, boat or let their pets near the water.
