Jefferson County Lake

Rigby Lake has always been one of my favorite places near Rexburg. The water is usually so nice to hop in and cool off. Also it is one of my favorite places to go canoeing and paddle boarding! One time the water was so clear during my canoeing class from BYU-I, I saw 5 paddles and I swam down and found all 5! I believe I sold them at a pawn shop. I also have had a great time having ward parties and FHE at this lake. We played spikeball and sand volleyball. Also, it is a good workout to swim across the lake!
