Crews are starting the work to clean up after the massive rainfall in Kananaskis washed out roads, stranded campers and prompted a local state of emergency for the provincial park. According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, more than 100 mm of rain fell from Friday night through Monday morning, with the rain continuing throughout the day Monday. On Tuesday, the majority of 1,500 visitors stranded in the park because of washed out roads were able to get out with most of Highway 40 reopening. Global's Meghan Cobb has more on the work being done to get everyone out and start allowing visitors back into the provincial park.
