Directions: Enter Cricket Creek Forest Preserve on the north side of Fullerton Avenue just east of Salt Creek in Addison. The put-in is directly west of the parking lot.
A shorter trip can be had by taking out at the Eldridge Park Canoe Landing (pictured).
The take-out at Hunter Drive is on river-left 0.4 mile downstream of the I-88 bridge at the west end of Hunter Drive, just before the Cermak Road bridge.
Notes: Do not continue downstream of Hunter Drive. The owners of the Butler Golf Course object to paddlers passing through the golf course or portaging the Oak Brook Dam which is 1,000 feet downstream of the 31st Street bridge.
