Des Plaines River
Des Plaines, Illinois, United States
Canoe and Kayak Launch area ramp to the river; water sample taken from the edge of the launch; water is always moving and speed depends on water level from snow or rain etc. Shoreline can vary depending on river height at the time, but water sample fairly easily obtained.
