Beautiful place. I haven't been everywhere around here yet but what I have seen is beautiful. Great little river to swim in with more that 1 natural spring that dumps loads of ice cold drinkable water into the river. Great place to bring kids for a small nature hike as well.

Fascinating building, different woods used on each floor in construction near Nachusa Grasslands if you want to see American Buffalo
