Description: Enjoy the winter beauty of canyons and discover how they were formed by glacial melt water and stream erosion. They slice dramatically through tree-covered sandstone bluffs meandering for four miles through Starved Rock State Park. We will be hiking about 8 miles along the nature trails of this extraordinary park viewing the many spectacular views from overlooks along the Illinois River. Limit 15. Leader is Paul Saindon, assistant Leader Joe Pratola. To sign up, email Paul at paul@pauls.us or call after 5pm 847 922 3379.
