River Explorer Kids Guide to Fun on the Upper Missouri River

Learn how to read the river, study eddys, and practice safety on the Upper Missouri River.  Includes information on knot-tying, leave no trace ethics, weather forecasting, and history. Measure river flow, play games, and have fun on the river. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) manages over 375,000 acres within the Upper Missouri River Breaks region. This is public land, which means it belongs to you and every other American. Where else can a person hike, fish, hunt, camp or watch wildlife without a fee? Make sure you know where you are during your journey; you need permission from private land owners to access or cross their private land. You and your family may wish to help out your public lands by
volunteering for a National Public Lands Day event each year – usually held in September. National Public Lands Day (NPLD) is the nation's largest, single-day volunteer event for public lands in the United States.
