  • St. Charles: Where Adventure Comes Full Circle
    2026/07/26

    The final stretch of the Missouri River 340 tells a story of reinvention. In this episode, we explore the fascinating history of Klondike Park, where ancient silica sand fueled America's glass industry before becoming a beloved outdoor destination. We'll visit Weldon Spring, one of the nation's largest environmental cleanup success stories, and finish in historic St. Charles - a town that has welcomed explorers, immigrants, cyclists, and MR340 paddlers.


    From Lewis and Clark's departure point to today's finish line, these communities remind us that every ending holds the promise of another adventure.
