Perfect Duluth Day

Post-flood swimming?

Like a lot of you, I’ve got the day off. The weather over the past few days has put swimming back on my to-do list, and I’m itching to toss the kids into the car and get into the water. Has anyone heard from those in the know whether area streams or lakes are safe for swimming? Our go-to spots are Amity Creek, Island Lake, Twin Ponds and Park Point, but we’re always looking to add new spots to that list.

I imagine that the lake-side beaches of Park Point are safe, but does anyone have any first-hand accounts of the temperature? How about temperature at Island Lake?
