Circle B reopens; no word on boat ramp

Circle B Bar Reserve, a popular ecotourism site managed by Polk County Parks and Natural Resources has reopened.
The site was temporarily closed last week after heavy rainfall from Tropical Storm Debby flooded some the trails.
There has been no announcement yet on the reopening of the Lake Hancock boat ramp, which is located south of the lake near the Southwest Florida Water Managment District water control structure.
The storm’s rain has raised lake and stream levels and streamflow volumes to normal or above normal after being below normal earlier this summer.
