Matthiessen State Park - May 29, 2011

A look at various parts of the trails and waterways of Matthiessen State Park near Utica IL, just down the road from the St Louis Canyon area of Starved Rock State Park. It had rained quite a bit the weeks before this trip, and even rained part of the day while there. Video shows the main bridge, view from the Lower Dells bridge, the Upper Dells areas and 45 foot waterfall, some Upper Dells bluffs trails, and many attempts to access the trails that criss-cross the water itself (but the water was too deep and fast). Many video sections have been sped-up in the interest of showing more in less time. This is a great state park in Illinois, and really is a "hidden gem" that many people overlook in favor of Starved Rock, despite probably being the smaller, better "cousin" of the larger and better-known park.
