Things to see and do Bozeman

Over 4,000 kilometers, the Missouri River, known as "Big Muddy" because of its troubled waters, is the longest tributary of Mississippi. It is in the park of Missouri Headwaters State Park, northwest of Bozeman, that it takes its source at the confluence of three rivers from the Rocky Mountains: The Jefferson, the Madison and the Gallatin River. She then crossed the Great Plains to South Dakota, descended along the border between Nebraska and Iowa, then continued east of Kansas to the state of Missouri before going to Mississippi just north of Saint-Louis. Lewis and Clark were the first white people to enter the region. They camped on the banks of Missouri in 1805. The Flathead, Bannock and Shoshone Indians fought for control of this strategic region, as the trappers and settlers later did.

The abundance of water gives rise to lush vegetation, and the Missouri Headwaters State Park aims to preserve this abundant flora and fauna. The park, which covers approximately 215 hectares, includes 17 campsites, picnic areas, hiking and cycling trails and interpretive sites in the region's history and biodiversity. The site is also known to be very photogenic.

Summer Speakers Series are conferences held Saturday evening at 7:00 p. m. at the park picnic area level (where Lewis and Clark camped), followed by a campfire where chamallows can be tracked. It's free, you just need to bring your campchair.
