Summary:
In the Upper Missouri River Breaks, the cliffs, the convoluted deep canyons and the river coursing through the bottom lands are still remote... still wild. The Missouri River flows through time; through rocks laid down in the realm of dinosaurs... and before. The more recent past still echoes off canyon slopes and cliff walls that have witnessed teepee villages, the passage of Lewis and Clark, fur Traders and free trappers, artists and royalty. Bellowing clouds of cinder-black smoke signaled the thrashing wake of steamboats that once plied the river. The open range was followed by the rush of homsteaders who gambled everything, and lost. Explore one of America's last great places and uncover the hidden stories and spectacular scenery in Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument. -- container.
