Ick! No way, but there are plenty of places around here to sail. Deer
Creek Reservoir, just southwest of Heber where the Provo River enters
Provo Canyon, is a real wind tunnel created by the same forces that
create the winds in the Gorge: cool high-elevation air on one side, and
hot dry desert air on the other. Some sail Jordanelle, outside of Park
City just east of Deer Valley. The azure waters of Bear Lake, straddling
the UT/ID border, are nothing short of spectacular:
