Or Was It Peer-Reviewed?—I Forget...

Consider what the ducks, loons, geese and fish excrement are adding to the soup you are swimming in. Add algae, small bugs and cyanobacteria, and a bit of pee is not your main concern, especially in Green's Basin. That said, the concentration of human excrement in Braun Bay is probably higher than the rest of the lake after a sunny weekend.
