Video of the South Branch of the Kishwaukee River, a generally easy-going and beginner-friendly trip at first, before flowing through two forest preserves full of large amounts of deadfall which require the right skill level and patience to navigate challenging currents in high levels. (Adjust to 4k for the best picture.)
