BOONE, Iowa---The Ledges State Park in Boone County has experienced three-flood events this year along with some major August rain events that caused substantial damage. Ledges Park Manager Andy Bartlett told KWBG that some of the damage through the Canyon Road is comparable to damage during the record flooding of 1993. The second flood event this summer was just shy of the crest in 2008, placing it in third place for flood waters. Bartlett provided KWBG with pictures of some of the damage. The Lower Ledges Road remains closed.
