Missouri Confluence

LOOKING Closer

This camera is located at the confluence of the Platte and Missouri rivers at Schilling Wildlife Management Area near Plattsmouth, Nebraska, south of Omaha. After a 1352 river-mile journey and draining 90,000 square miles, the water here reaches the lowest point in the watershed and the eastern end of the Platte River Basin. In 2019 this camera was lost to the river due to a historic flooding event and likely in the Gulf of Mexico.
