WATER SAFETY

Be Lake Smart All-Year Long

Resources, tips, and tools to help you and your family enjoy Mahogany Lake safely and confidently.

Mahogany Seasonal Lake Flag System: Yellow Flag
Water Safety

See the Flag. Check the Conditions. Make LakeSmart Decisions.

Mahogany's Seasonal Lake Flag System now includes a yellow flag, joining green and red. A yellow flag means the lake is open, but elevated hazards are present. Use caution, make your own decision about whether conditions are right for you and those in your care, and check the lake status page for details before entering the water or ice. A yellow flag does not mean conditions are safe. Use at your own risk.
