Nope, Chicagoland (Fox Valley area), Galena area (NW IL) and Oregon (north central IL). There arent many hills in the Chicagoland area, mostly some decent ridges and rolling terrain. Every once in a while a larger hill will pop out, and behind it can be as flat as a board. The glaciers did some weird stuff around here. haha The Galena area (NW IL) is really hilly, part of the Driftless Zone, where the glaciers missed and left the land pretty much untouched. Im hoping to get some road pics from southern IL this spring, they have some incredible roads down there.
