Learn about the worlds first's major natural waterway reversal in human history as we traverse from the heart of the Chicago along the Chicago River to the Illinois and Michigan Canal.

​Cold air starts to sweep across the land when we go back in time to relive a catastrophic flood that occurred between 14,000 and 18,000 years ago in the Midwestern United States that reshaped the land.

One of the most beloved hidden jewels near Chicagoland is Starved Rock State Park. It is one of Illinois'​most beautiful destinations.  The park's 18 canyons feature vertical walls of moss-covered stone and multiple waterfalls, formed by glacial melt water that slice dramatically through tree-covered sandstone bluffs located along the Illinois River bluffs in Utica  Illinois will surely percolate anyone's curiosity.
