Canoe or Kayak Little Missouri River, North Dakota
A great way to experience the North Dakota Badlands is to float down the Little Missouri River. May and June are the best times of the year on the river since for much of the rest of the year, low water levels require boaters to frequently drag their boats through shallow stretches. A river depth of at least 2.5 feet (699 cfs) at Medora is required for fair boating and 2.5-3.5 feet (699-1500 cfs) for good boating.
It takes about five days to canoe the 107.5 miles between Medora near the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park and Long X Bridge on U.S. Highway 85 near the park's North Unit.
WARNING: Summer thunderstorms and resulting floods may cause water levels to increase with little or no warning transforming the quiet river into a raging torrent carrying large logs and debris.
