We also unveiled an innovative, interactive map of the section of the
Missouri River that flows alongside the great state of Nebraska. The Missouri
River Access Guide is housed on the newly redesigned Commission website
and illustrates every point of access to the river along the Nebraska border.
It shows all public land located along the river and lists amenities and
activities available on each section, catalogs fish species found in the river
near each point of access, shows mile markers and much more. This is an
invaluable tool for anyone planning a trip along the Missouri and is just
one of many interactive maps the Commission has designed for hunters,
anglers and park visitors. We take great pride in the innovative ways we've
been able to use new technologies to reach Nebraskans and visitors
alike, through our digital guides, robust social media channels, digital
NEBRASKAland Magazine, blogs, videos and more. The engagement we
receive from customers shows they appreciate such outreach efforts, which
we will continually seek to enhance moving forward.
As you read this report, I think you will find that we optimize Nebraskans'
ability to conserve, enjoy and appreciate the rich and diverse natural
resources we're so fortunate to have. As we look toward Nebraska's
150th year, we believe there has never been a better time to enjoy all the
natural beauty that Nebraska has to offer, and we are proud of the role the
Nebraska Game and Parks Commission fulfills in protecting and enhancing
our state's immense natural resources.
