Description
-
Extensive article about the Missouri River promoting its use as a "river trail" with canoe or kayak. Although the river was dangerous in the early days of settlement (nearly 300 vessles met with disaster on the river in the 1800s), today it is "safe, scenic, and easily accessible, thanks to the abundance of Conservation Areas, state parks, federal lands, and city parks adjacent to the river...." Flood control, waterways and parks resulting from the 1993 flood, conservation plans, as well as "Tips for Floating the Missouri," are discussed. Map of the Missouri River Trail shows access points.
