The Blue River is Kansas City’s river. Two-thirds of all water in the Kansas City metropolitan area drains into the Blue River. It begins in Johnson County, Kansas, and flows into Missouri. There, the Blue joins the Missouri River near Independence. Increased development-everything from houses to parking lots to industrial sites-on the land around the river has hurt water quality and increased flooding downstream.
Filmmaker Michael Price teamed with The Nature Conservancy and Heartland Conservation Alliance to document how you can find yourself in the Blue River.
