FISHMT :: Waterbody Details

Missouri River

America's longest river gets it's start in Montana near the town of Three Forks. Right from the start the Missouri is running big and wide on it's long journey across North America to join the Mississippi over 2300 miles away. The swift currents of late spring and summer make it a popular river for floaters. The land the Missouri slides by has substantially the same appearance as when it was explored by the Lewis and Clark expedition over two centuries ago.
