Edward "Ted" and Pat Jones-Confluence Point State Park
Photograph the dramatic meeting line where the Missouri and Mississippi rivers merge — braided currents, seasonal wetlands, migratory birds and Lewis & Clark interpretive markers add context. Best at sunrise/sunset for side-lighting on the river seam; spring/fall offer migrants and lower vegetation. Short 0.3–0.5 mi walk from parking; area floods seasonally so check conditions. No entry fee; limited facilities and parking near the trailhead. Often quiet on weekdays.
