WELL WORTH THE TRIP! You need at least 2 full days to explore the whole thing. IT'S INCREDIBLE! You can't crawl it all in a weekend.

The pictures above are just the "play" area, the real stuff was too wet to get to that day. There are so many rocky areas to crawl, it almost makes your head spin .Troy. |

wow that place is huge. i am looking at a map of the 1000 island environmental center on google maps and its really large. how often do you guys have comps? you could have endless comps there cause of the shear size

the water level should be way down cause of the lack of rain.

The water level is down, just got back from there minutes ago. You'd have to check the FVRCC listing for comps and locations, but we all go there for fun runs too! Today I worked on my river crossing skills, just for grins .How I do love to play in da water! Troy. |

1000 islands can be unpredictable though-Kasper and I went there on Thurs. and the water was higher than I've ever seen it! To get to the good spots, usually there is only a few inches of water, thurs it was more like a foot+.:-( | |
