This map shows the Missouri River. The blue line shows my drive from Colorado Springs to the start in Three Forks, Montana.
The trip crosses through Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri. It finishes in St. Louis, Missouri. The lowest three states share a border along the river, and I will camp on either side. In all the river covers 2341 miles long. Through the reservoirs the distance is measured following the traditional riverbed. I will paddle further on the reservoirs’ flat water than the traditional river bed, increasing the total mileage. Follow my progress here when I start.
