Des Plaines River Description

The Des Plaines River flows southward for 150 miles (241 km) through southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois[1] in the U.S. Midwest, eventually meeting the Kankakee River west of Channahon to form the Illinois River, a tributary of the Mississippi River. Des Plaines is French for "of the plains" or "of the prairie", but it is pronounced phonetically by locals (with no silent letters), rather than using the French pronunciation.
