Gasconade River
The
Gasconade River is a
tributary of the
Missouri River, about 265 mi (425 km) long, in south-central and central
Missouri in the
United States.
The Gasconade rises in the
Ozarks northeast of
Seymour in eastern
Webster County and flows generally north-northeastwardly through
Wright,
Laclede,
Pulaski,
Phelps,
Maries,
Osage and
Gasconade Counties, through portions of the
Mark Twain National Forest. It flows into the Missouri River at the town of
Gasconade.
In Wright County the river collects the short

Hartville. In Laclede County it collects the
Osage Fork Gasconade River, which rises in Webster County and flows northeastward. In Pulaski County it collects the
