Traversing Iowa's Waterways
There are many waterways that crisscross the Iowa landscape. From the Missouri to the Mississippi and every river in between, there are a whole host of activities to be had recreating on Iowa's water channels. The most important thing about having fun on these rivers and streams is safety. Being able to navigate these watercourses safely will keep you returning to them again and again to enjoy the great Iowa outdoors.
