From Apple River Canyon to War Bluff Valley Sanctuary, Exploring
Nature in Illinois will take readers on an arm-chair journey to 49
of the state’s most hidden natural resource treasures. A wealth of
photographs and information provide natural and cultural
interpretation that will motivate any reader to get out and explore
these places. Casual hikers, cyclers, students, scouts and weekend
drivers will find themselves challenged to look around with new eyes
to the prairies, lakesides, river bottoms and woodlands, right here
in Illinois. Books will be available for purchase. After the
program, stick around for ice cream and conversation. Donations
appreciated.
