Hey all!
I have been thinking of heading to the Kankakee Sands Preserve in search of some bull snakes and racerunners. I have read and heard a lot about the area and have been wanting to drive over there. I live close by but wanted to see who has gone here and if they have had luck? Any advice for a newer herper? I have started numerous threads but none in this area because I didn't know their was a MIDWEST CHAPTER lol THANKS

Last time I was there the grass was so high on the tracks that you couldnt pass it. I would wait till it started to die off. Plus the flips sites in that area didn't yield anything. Ild wait till mid fall.

Re: Kankakee Sand Prairies
Im assuming your talking about Indiana, but in the off chance you are talking about Illinois, always ask for permission before going on to private proiperty, or potentially private property. They don't play around up there.
Re: Kankakee Sand Prairies
It's generally frowned upon to openly discuss areas that aren't nature preserves and have protection. Have fun looking for Bullsnakes up there...
Re: Kankakee Sand Prairies
I am familiar with the area and would be happy to meet you there sometime. I agree that fall would be better. Let me know when you will be I'm the area and I will try to make it.
