Q4 #ParkChat One of my travel goals is to float the Missouri River at Missouri Breaks NM in #Montana. Are there any Park or #PublicLand Rivers that you long to go in depth (pun intended) on? Any plans?

A3 I'm going to recycle an answer from a previous #parkchat and go with rafting down the Kobuk River during caribou migration season - which would be my ultimate National Park wish

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3 #parkchat. Well, I remember the white-water rafting in New River being faster and more fun. The other adventure was in Denali tho, and the thought of having done that still makes me smile.

@Wild_Tribute Taking a boat out on the River of Grass is always fun.
(It took me three questions to mention the Everglades and her nickname. I’m ashamed. It should have taken less. 😂) #FindYourPark #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3: Flaming Gorge is reservoir formed by a dam in the Green River. It's depths are beautiful and clear with a hint of gem. Nothing like cutting through the glass on summer day. #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks #parkchat A4 too many! Niobrara float trip is big for us, as well as my aforementioned @BighornCanyNPS. Love to do part of the Colorado too!

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3) The best river adventure in the National Parks is probably at Grand Canyon down the Colorado though walking the Narrows along the Virgin River in Zion is pretty good and quite a bit cheaper. #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3 I really want to do a rafting trip down the Rio Grande thru Santa Elena Canyon @BigBendNPS This is a bucket list item for me #ParkChat google images of it if you’re not familiar, it looks pretty amazing

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3) Well, they are NPS units, but the ride up to Rainbow Bridge NM from Glen Canyon NRA is on our must do list! #parkchat

A4. No doubt. Rafting the Colorado through @GrandCanyonNPS stands at the top. Rafting the Gates of Lodore in @DinosaurNPS is a close second. And a pack raft in @CanyonlandsNPS is calling our names! #ParkChat

A4 I want to go whitewater rafting on the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon! I've heard of overnight trips where you camp along the river a couple nights. #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks A4) I really want to float the Colorado in @GrandCanyonNPS. It's on my bucket list, but we sadly don't have any plans to do it soon. #ParkChat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute A3: based on experience it’s hiking up one in a canyon. (I might also say kayaking rapids, but I’ve never actually done that, but in my imagination it is probably the best thing involving a river) #ParkChat

@59NationalParks A4. I'll meet you there!
I've wanted to take a ride along the Missouri, the Mississippi, and, after my trip this summer, the Columbia. #parkchat. No plans, though.

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute @tthrash @59NationalParks @NatlParkService It's one of the oldest on the planet. Estimated to be 320 million years old. It bisects the Appalachian mountains, and those formed a long, long time ago #parkchat

replying to @Wild_Tribute @Wild_Tribute @tthrash @59NationalParks @NatlParkService The @NewRiverNPS is stunning and is one of my favorite weekend-away trips from DC. #ParkChat

replying to @Parkasaur @59NationalParks @NatlParkService Hmmm. missed Rio Grande, but that would make 10. Plus, there’s Big South Fork and Mississippi NRRA which both aught to be included #ParkChat

A4. If we could turn back time, a float through the Glen Canyon prior to the dam sounds divine #ParkChat
