There’s lots to do outdoors in Missouri

M

issouri is well-known for its outdoor resources. We have world-class float streams and family-friendly reservoirs for all sorts of craft from tubes to lake yachts.

Plenty of public and private land invites you to hike, explore, camp and just plain relax if you’d rather.

Not only do we have some of the United States’ choicest hunting and fishing locations, plentiful amounts of most game species, and picturesque vistas little impacted by humans, we also have lots of locals ready and willing to show you a tip or trick and advise you about the best places to go.

Helping folks find the best local outdoor-related businesses is what Missouri Guides & Outfitters is all about. Carry it with you in the car as you explore the Missouri outdoors. Visit MOGO online to find cabins, campgrounds, canoe outfitters and more before you leave home.

Listings are indexed by river/region The front cover is your guide to finding listings by lake, river or region. The booklet is printed once each year, in late December. Check www.missouriguidesandoutfitters.com for updated online listings throughout the year.

You can access a free digital replica of this booklet on our main website,

www.riverhillstraveler.com. Share that link with your friends.

Enjoying Missouri’s out-of-doors Every outdoor region of the state has something to recommend it.

The Ozarks are a range of ancient mountains and plateaus which covers the southern third of the state. The 1.5 million-acre Mark Twain National Forest exists here. So does the Ozark National

Scenic Riverways, and ample opportunity for deer, turkey, and small game hunting.

Clear, gravel-bottomed streams, fed by huge freshwater springs provide good stocked fishing at the four state trout parks as well as downstream. Smallmouth bass, bluegill and perch are plentiful.

You may want to sample the Ozarkian Please see MOGO, 21

If you see purple paint, better keep your distance

By Francis Skalicky his is the time of year when a number of trees throughout the area receive a fresh coat of purple paint.

Commonly known as “the Purple Paint Law,” Missouri’s Purple Paint Statute (RSMO 569.145) allows landowners to make it obvious their property is posted as a “no trespassing” area by painting purple vertical stripes on trees and posts.

It was enacted in 1993 as an economical, easy and effective way for landowners to keep out trespassers. It’s not a hunting regulation – it’s a state statute that applies to trespassing issues at any time of year.

This applies to floaters, fishermen, hunters, etc.

However, when the fall hunting seasons get underway (archery deer and turkey season begin in September and other seasons will follow), this is when purple paint markings seem to be most prevalent.

Landowners want to make their land boundaries obvious to the increasing number of hunters that will be roaming through the woods now and in the weeks ahead.

The statute stipulates that: • Any landowner or lessee of real property can post the property with purple paint marks.

• Purple paint marks shall be placed on either trees or posts. Vertical paint lines shall be a minimum of eight inches long.

• The bottom edge of the paint mark shall be no less than three feet and no more than five feet from the ground.

• Purple paint lines cannot be more than 100 feet apart.

• Posts may be capped or

T

otherwise marked on at least its top two inches.

• The bottom of the cap or mark (on the post) shall not be less than three feet, but more than five feet, six inches high.

• Posts so marked shall be placed not more than 36 feet apart.

• Prior to applying a cap or mark which is visible from both sides of a fence shared by different property owners or lessees, all owners or lessees shall concur in the decision to post their property.

• Both purple paint marks and post caps shall be readily visible to anyone approaching the property.

The Purple Paint Statute has numerous benefits. It allows property owners to clearly identify the boundaries of their land without the expense and problems of erecting and maintaining fences and signs.

The painted marks on trees cannot be easily torn down or vandalized and, thus, have the potential to be an effective property marker for several years.

It should be noted that land does not have to be posted for trespassing laws to be enforced. Trespassing on any private property, posted or not, is illegal. However, trespassing on posted property is a more serious offense.

In addition to being definitive markings of property boundaries; purple paint stripes, purple capped posts and “No Trespassing” signs are often indicators of something else – a landowner

whose had negative experiences with people who didn’t have permission to be on the land.

One of the first and most critical rules of hunting on private property is to make sure you have permission to be on the land. Just because you hunted on someone’s property in previous years, don’t assume your privilege to hunt on that person’s land is still good. Ask to be sure.

MOGO from 3 tradition of night gigging for fish and frogs. Photographers and hikers find plenty to do here. Don’t miss Johnson’s Shut-Ins State Park in the Black River region.

The River Heritage Region (Cape Girardeau, the Bootheel, and the shank of the boot over to Poplar Bluff) combines the best of Southern outdoors traditions with the tinge of the nearby Ozarks.

Waterfowl hunting is king, along with cotton, and muddy Mississippi River fishing.

Deer and turkey have returned, but in lesser numbers.

Statewide, many agencies and individuals answer dozens of questions daily about the Missouri outdoors.

In northern Missouri, including Swan Lake, Forest Lake and Mark Twain Lake regions, big deer are king, upland bird hunting is queen and catfish and large fish rule the murky streams.

St. Louis and Kansas City have outdoors places, too.

Most people in the state live in or near these big cities. A number of outfitters, Conservation Nature Centers, and smaller public parks serve people, especially youth, who are unable to travel to traditional outdoors destinations.

Page 21

“No Child Left Inside” is a laudable goal. Like many things, it begins at home.

We call it “floating” Although most creeks, streams and rivers can be navigated by some sort of craft, “floating” in a canoe, kayak, raft or tube evokes the carefree drifting downriver of Huck Finn, and is a uniquely Missouri tradition. Try it.

Prefer a motor? Johnboats, utility boats and up to luxury craft are launched every day on every fair-sized stream or man-made reservoir. MOGO can help you make the arrangements you need for a safe and fun trip.

There are large impoundments within a three-hour drive of every point in the state, with camping, hunting, and fishing, with every one having its own flavor: large-

mouth, white, striper and spotted bass, walleye and muskie. The southwest TriLakes region is well named.

Jimmy Sexton, Owner & Publisher, Missouri Guides & Outfitters

Other things to do outdoors Wild turkey hunting for one thing. Go trapping. Or there is geocaching, where a GPS unit is used to find treasures left by others — a kind of hightech hide and seek. Hike the Ozark Trail.
