The Des Plaines River and the Calumet Sag Channel converge in this corner of suburban Chicago, creating a complex corridor of waterways and wetlands. This area, protected in part by the Illinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor, is defined by a dense concentration of sloughs and lakes, including Sagunashkee Slough, Tampier Lake, and Bull Frog Lake.
