Favorite Float Trip Destinations:
Missouri may not have beaches, but it does have an abundance of rivers perfect for float trips. Coming from someone (me) who knew nothing about where, when, how to float trip, I am now anxious to spend at least one weekend at these locations.
To make things easy for you, we even put together a nifty little google map for you: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1-rWTNiMHmuV5K71bOtyEfaKJYCg
