YES THE RIVER! I went a two weeks ago and it is officially warm enough to get in, although maybe a bit too cold to really swim in.
I’m leery of any water that DuPont uses as their own personal toilet..
I’m looking forward to swimming as well and if it makes you feel any better bopst, DuPont is downstream ;)
