Travel with John Lynn and experience the adventure of paddling all 2321 miles of “The Big Muddy” through Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri.

The sprawling, brawling Missouri River flows 2321 miles from its origin at Three Forks, Montana to the Mississippi River. Along the way, it has been the river of Native tribes, Lewis and Clark, traders, trappers, mountain men, homesteaders, cavalry posts, cattle barons, flatboats and steamboats, gold and silver rushes, oil and gas booms, and now sport fishermen and paddlers,

Armchair Travels is generously funded with a gift from the Rutherford Family Trust. This program will not be recorded.
