Strawberry - Mud Creek

Interesting dive - very dense freshwater plants growing up in large clumps from the bottom to the surface - much like kelp. I believe its blatterwort. You literally have to find channels threw it which is a really cool experience. On the bottom are more crawfish than you can count, everywhere. Very shallow, great for buoyancy practice. Bottom is extremely soft mud, but due to all the plants little silting with dense root systems. Gradually gets deeper as you make your way out of the very protected lagoon. Usually the warmest part of the lake since its shallow and warms more easily. Name is a misnomer - yes very soft mud bottom but surprisingly clear though heavy alga concentration. Good amount of fish too.

Fairly new small reservoir, and pretty shallow (I was able to get a maximum reading of 16 feet). The reservoir collects tumbleweeds in the fall and winter, making for almost reef like structures. Some very large rocks and a few big logs. This lake has a lot of fish (mostly rainbow trout and albino's). Very close to Utah valley, great for training dives (Underwater Nav and Night Diving in particular). Can easily explore the majority of the place on a single tank. Just east of the parking lot, about 100 feet.
