Along miles upon miles of shoreline, the Missouri River and its four large reservoirs create a land rich in wildlife, beauty, and community. No town or terrain is the same, though life on the Missouri always revolves around the water. Boaters, kayakers, anglers and swimmers enjoy the shores and waves, while hunters, hikers, bikers and campers explore the rugged banks. Our reservoirs are controlled by four hydroelectric dams, the most interesting and impressive manmade structures to be seen in South Dakota.
