Blue River (Missouri River)
The Blue River (also known as the Big Blue River) is a 〔U.S. Geological Survey. National Hydrography Dataset high-resolution flowline data. (The National Map ), accessed May 31, 2011〕 stream that flows through Johnson County, Kansas and Jackson County, Missouri in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area. The river rises in Johnson County near the border of the states of Kansas and Missouri. Crossing the city of Kansas City, Missouri, it empties into the Missouri River near the border between Kansas City and Independence, Missouri.
Its major tributaries are Brush Creek, Tomahawk Creek, and Indian Creek.
==Recreational Activities==
Along the Blue River can be found many miles of hiking, biking, and walking trails. Portions of these trails can be found along the flat, engineered areas of a former steam railroad bed, the former location of the Missouri Pacific Railroad line that ran from Dodson, Missouri south to Martin City, Missouri. This railbed followed the Blue River and had many curves. The route was straightened in 1954 with the use of three high trestle bridges over the Blue River and one substantial cut. This improved line is now the Union Pacific / KC Southern Mainline and generally parallels the Blue river into the bottoms railyard near Front Street in Kansas City.
