Dylan M asked:
Everyone i talk to says not to swim in it cause its really really dirty but i went there the other day and it actually looks pretty clean. another reason is because it apparently has a really strong current. Is this true? im a pretty strong swimmer but if its THAT dirty or THAT strong of a current i wont go in. dont say if im not shure dont go in cause i will never be shure because none of the people ive talked to have actually gone in the river themselves. Im in edmonton if it really makes a diffrence.

For anything besides quick dip in sk is an important issue with rivers how strong is always an issue are you swimming downstream from any sewage or waste entering.
An important issue are you didnt hit on was water current and likely to be fed by glacial.
