Warnings
This entire stretch carries real risk of severe injury per multiple regional guides — the river road is steep and treacherous, and jump spots are unofficial and unmarked. Scout every spot yourself before jumping.
Access
Illinois River Road parallels the river with several pull-offs; Illinois River Forks State Park is the developed access point into this stretch. The road itself is narrow and steep in places.
Best conditions
Summer, once the river has dropped from winter high water.
