The Upper Missouri River Breaks National Monument and the Marias River corridor are best experienced by canoe or kayak. Because both rivers are wide, with docile currents and lack white water rapids, the trip is easily navigated and doesn’t require advanced, technical skill. Visitors can expect to paddle (with the current) 14-20 miles per day.
