Missouri River channel-migration fields (KC-St. Joseph)

BOTTLE DIGGING PERMISSION REQUIRED DOCUMENTED

Where: US-Other · approx. 39.54, -95.1 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: Steamboat-cargo era; 400+ wrecks, most now under farmland

What turns up: [doc from Arabia/Bertrand] Entire cargo classes: Hostetter's-type bitters, champagnes, cathedral pickles, case gin, boots, crockery - museum-grade when it hits.

Access: Permission required.

The wrecks left the river as the channel moved - they sit under private fields, so it is old channel maps + magnetometer + a landowner deal. This is the highest-ceiling project on the map.
