History of outdoors and exploration in Missouri

Missouri, often referred to as the "Show-Me State," offers a rich history of outdoor recreation and exploration. The state's diverse landscape, ranging from the rugged Ozark Mountains to the fertile plains along the Mississippi River, has been a playground for adventurers for centuries. Missouri's outdoor heritage dates back to the Native American tribes who first inhabited the area, utilizing its abundant natural resources for hunting and fishing. The arrival of European settlers in the 17th century marked a new era of exploration in Missouri. The Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804-1806, which started near St. Louis, is one of the most notable early explorations that put Missouri on the map as an outdoor destination. This expedition paved the way for westward expansion and sparked interest in Missouri's untamed wilderness. In more recent history, Missouri has become a hub for various forms of outdoor recreation. The establishment of national parks like Ozark National Scenic Riverways and Mark Twain National Forest has made hiking, camping, canoeing, and fishing popular activities among locals and visitors alike. Additionally, Missouri's extensive trail system attracts mountain bikers from across the country. Today's adventurers continue to be drawn to Missouri's unique blend of history and natural beauty. Whether it's retracing Lewis and Clark's steps along the Missouri River or casting a line in one of its many freshwater lakes, there is always something new to discover in this captivating state. Missouri is a large agricultural state with $12.2B of ag production, and roughly 88.8% of the land privately owned by farmers and ranchers. The major crops are soybeans, corn, cow/calf production, broilers (chicken) and hogs. When planning hunting trips to Missouri on private lands like farms & ranches, it's important to understand some key dates for farmers and ranchers. Ranchers in this region usually do their calving, brandings and vaccinations anywhere from February through June and will ship cattle in late fall. During these times, they are extremely busy and may be harder to communicate with. Farmers in Missouri will usually begin planting their crops in late April through August and then will harvest their crops in September through December, depending on weather.

Popular outdoor activities in Missouri

One of the most popular outdoor activities in Missouri is fishing. The state boasts over 1 million acres of surface water filled with diverse species including bass, crappie, catfish and trout. Anglers will find top-notch fishing at the Lake of the Ozarks or along the Current River. Hunting is another key attraction in Missouri. With abundant populations of white-tailed deer and wild turkey, hunters can enjoy a successful season amidst stunning natural scenery. The Mark Twain National Forest offers over 1.5 million acres of public hunting land. For those who prefer a more leisurely pace, Missouri's extensive trail system provides ample opportunities for hiking and birdwatching. The Ozark Trail stretches over 350 miles across some of the state's most breathtaking terrain. Camping enthusiasts will appreciate Missouri's well-maintained campgrounds located in scenic spots like Bennett Spring State Park or along the shores of Table Rock Lake.

Popular counties for outdoor activities in Missouri

Greene County, home to Springfield and the Ozark Mountains, is a popular destination for hiking and mountain biking with over 80 parks and miles of scenic trails. Fishing enthusiasts will appreciate Taney County for its world-class trout fishing in Lake Taneycomo. For hunters, Texas County boasts a large population of white-tailed deer and wild turkey. Meanwhile, Boone County offers an array of water sports activities along the Missouri River. Paddling, kayaking, or canoeing are popular here due to the river's gentle flow and abundance of wildlife. St. Charles County is another outdoor paradise with its Katy Trail State Park - America's longest developed rail-trail ideal for cycling or horseback riding. For spelunkers or those interested in geology, Perry County is home to more than 700 caves waiting to be explored. Lastly, don't overlook Camden County where Lake of the Ozarks provides ample opportunities for boating, fishing and camping. Each county in Missouri offers unique outdoor experiences that cater to different interests and skill levels. Whether you're an avid angler looking for your next big catch or an adrenaline junkie seeking new heights on a mountain bike trail, Missouri's diverse counties have something to offer every outdoor enthusiast.
