Braidwood and Wilmington anchor this study of the Illinois prairie, where the Kankakee River winds through a landscape transformed by industrial and recreational water management. The northern reaches are dominated by the Dresden Cooling Lake and the Illinois and Michigan Canal National Heritage Corridor, marking the intersection of historic transit and modern energy infrastructure. Notable river features like Mulberry Island and Grape Island sit near the County Line Bridge at the Will and Grundy county border.
