Trip Report

ReporterTed Hogan

Access is at Lockport Prairie Nature Reserve, at the Intersection of Route 53 and Division St (Stateville Prison at SW cornernof this intersection). Drive into park to end of road, and walk up river bed (rocks, not mud) about 1/4 mile to these and other rapids. Have been told rapids can get twice as big under higher water conditions.
