Update: No More Swimming In Lake Piru!
Thank you all for making this work.

Lake Piru has been the site of numerous drownings over the years due to chilly temperatures that can overwhelm swimmers.

The lake where Glee actress Naya Rivera went missing is notorious for deadly rip currents, chilly water and sudden huge waves.

The cool temperatures, large waves and rip currents can all work in concert to rob even the strongest swimmer of energy.

Park officials already speculated in the past that wind gusts and deep columns of chilly water on the lake, which is up to 160 ft deep depending on the time of year, can overtake swimmers quickly.

Swimming in this lake is extremely dangerous and should not be allowed!

A number of fatalities related to drownings have occurred at Lake Piru, you can read them here:
