Four Lakes Forest Preserve Dog Training Area

The part we visited is on the south side of Kilburn Road (route 70). It is not really on this map. It is more or less where it says "possible dog training area".

The map has also not been updated to show the addition of another pond immediately to the west of the existing four ponds. It was purchased from the former county sheriff who was apparrently trying to develop it as a private fishing camp, but never was able to make a go of it.

In this Google Earth image you can see the gravel road coming in from route 70. The fancy outhouse is along the loop to the north. You can see several trails in the weeds that are also visible from the gravel road.
