Utah Division of Wildlife Resources ( map link ) Out near the edge of miles and miles of flat flat flat desert is a bit of water. A pond. A pool, really. A fairly deep pool, in fact. Deep enough to attract scuba divers. I saw some with an electric pump that only allows them to go about 15 feet deep and others with actual tanks to go all the way, 60 feet down. They came with little spears and fishing poles to get fish. There's even scuba classes that come out to the lake. Sign for the little piece of state land among a lot of Bureau of Land Management and Air Force land Follow the boardwalk from the sometimes muddy large parking area Saffron winged meadowhawk Blue Lake becomes visible I found distractions among the plants beside the boardwalk as it approaches the water, especially in the big pods from the milkweed that were letting their seeds disperse.
