(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Dropping water levels at Pineview Reservoir, seen here at Cemetery Point, reduced the amount of boat traffic at the popular destination in Ogden Valley. Utah's reservoirs have fallen to 52% capacity in the face of a historic drought. Pineview is now less than a quarter full as seen on Thursday, Aug. 12, 2021, and is expected to keep dropping.
