A storm system will move through the region this evening, and will bring several hours of light to occasionally moderate snow. Minor coatings of snow are possible on grassy and elevated surfaces, but impacts to roadways are not expected given ground, road, and air temperatures above freezing. It will still be a good idea to use caution while driving this evening, especially when snow is falling.
SUMMARY
Charlestown State Park Boat Ramp is located in Indiana, not Kentucky. The latitude and longitude provided corresponds to the entrance of the park, not the boat ramp.
The Charlestown State Park Boat Ramp is actually located at 12500 State Road 62, Charlestown, IN 47111. It provides access to Fourteen Mile Creek, a tributary of the Ohio River, which is approximately 2 miles downstream from the boat ramp.
The boat ramp is a concrete, single-lane ramp that is approximately 20 feet wide. It is suitable for launching small to medium-sized boats and personal watercraft. The ramp has a gentle slope and a moderate incline, which makes it easy to launch and retrieve boats.
The park allows motorized boats, kayaks, canoes, and other non-motorized watercraft on Fourteen Mile Creek. However, there are restrictions on the size and horsepower of motorized boats. Boats with an engine larger than 10 horsepower are not allowed on the creek.
