Class I Blue River, MO

Blue River (Kansas City to Missouri River)

Blue River watershed streams and corridors are valuable resources for a variety of recreational uses such as fishing, hiking, and nature interpretation. Fortunately, there is a large amount of public park land along the Blue River and, to a lesser degree, along some of its major tributary streams.

 

There is a need to publicize recreational opportunities and improve access to these natural areas. There is also a need to increase public awareness and appreciation for these resources to promote advocacy for watershed streams. (Missouri Dept. of Conservation)
