The rivers are very high this year. Lots of logs and snags. WA rivers are really no place to be going for a swim. From what I can tell this doesn't apply to lakes, just rivers. Seems reasonable to me, at least in the context of the nanny state world we currently live in. It is expensive and risky to put together a rescue/recovery team. I guess one alternative would be to bill people who need to be rescued, or bill the families for recovering the bodies.
