Information about the Kaw River State Park Float (Sept. 4) and the Wild & Scenic Film Festival (Oct. 14) is in the FOK News section
The Kansas
River (which
is also called the Kaw) begins at the confluence of the
Republican and
Smoky Hill Rivers near Junction City and flows 173 miles to Kansas City,
where it joins the Missouri River. The Kaw watershed drains almost the entire
northern half of Kansas, as well as part of Nebraska and Colorado
(53,000 square miles in all), and is the longest prairie based river in
the world. Come explore the Kaw with us in the River
Atlas and Where You
Live and Work, and join us for float
trips and other fun events
on the river. Our newsletter is now available online.
