EJoe 10-08-2007, 22:28 Yep.....Starved Rock SP. One of my favorite places. Lots of water running there all summer. You should of seen it after the August floods! Thats Wildcat canyon. gretchensteele 10-09-2007, 05:11 Violets??? There violets blooming somewhere now??? These must be from this spring? Lovely look down into the sink hole... DetectDave 10-09-2007, 05:15 As a kid, we usued to picnic here at least once a month in the summer. Have some great memories there. They do ice fall climbing in the winter too.

Yea.....that ice climbing is crazy! Bad enough climbing cliffs when its warm but ice!! Feb. is a great time out there too.....loads of Bald Eagles come thru. We go hiking there every other weekend and I bowfish the river every weekend in the summer when not in flood. The top two pics were from a recent trip bout a month ago, the violets were from early summer. Not really a woods pic.....i just like it though. DetectDave 10-09-2007, 06:00 Do you live close by Joe? That was my old stompin ground for years but more so a bit east of there. My best friend in college lived in Streator and I workd in Morris for a while. Every once in a while we would slip over to LP for a few beverages:) gretchensteele 10-09-2007, 06:02 aw violets are an integrel part of the woods..and it's a nice violets shot! even the ones that I babied in the woods bed here at the house have finally given up the ghost..

My best friend in college lived in Streator and I workd in Morris for a while. Every once in a while we would slip over to LP for a few beverages:) Im about a 40-60 min drive away from there Dave. That whole river town area, Morris, Ottawa, Utica, Peru, Henry is real nice. Some good deer hunting there too.....but if the water is not hard I find it tough to tear myself away from it to hunt. gretchensteele 10-09-2007, 06:51 Joe I'll have to remember that you know these places well when I get up there to shoot..I'll be calling on you for trail advice etc.. |
