Canyon Lake remains one of the biggest beneficiaries of the surge in rain that struck the Texas Hill Country last week. For the first time in years, the New Braunfels-area lake is almost full after nearly a week of rains and floods. Now anyone wanting to go out on the water is learning some positive news.

The four county ramps join Ramp 18 at Canyon Park and Ramp 3 at Comal Park as the spots where boating enthusiasts can officially put in.
"Comal County crews have been hard at work clearing debris and overgrown vegetation from area boat ramps, and the county is pleased to welcome the public back out on the water," the news release read.
