Illinois River In Morris

Snowrider turned Jetskier · 08-16-2009, 01:24 PM

Went there for the first time yesterday, Usually I go to Ottawa, the water was really clear compared to ottawa and warm, the launch for skis sucked but once we were in the water, we had a blast, lots of area to ride and a few big boats to wake jump, overall im was impresed, I would recomend it if anybody was wondering about it

Next time you should come up north a bit by the illinois/kankakee. Same river, more boats, plus a sandbar.

I was out in Morris yesterday, Man did it rain or what!! I got dumped on!! Your right the ramps there suck but what can you do,

Hey Boz Mon never been to the Kanakee where do you drop the skis in the water there?

Most people go to wilmington conservation area to drop in. theres a pretty big ramp. I live right on the river so I've actually never used this ramp.

The Wilmington ramp is really nice along with the huge parking lot...Give it a shot, you will have a great time..

Is the pool in morris really big? Ive never been there, it seems like it is narrow, with a lot of traffic

Me and some other buddies are always out in Wilmington during the week and sometimes Morris on the weekends.
