- Der Boyer River ist ein 224 Kilometer langer östlicher Nebenfluss des Missouri River im Westen des US-Bundesstaates Iowa. Der Fluss wurde in der Zeit vor der Lewis-und-Clark-Expedition nach einem Siedler benannt. Der Boyer River ist im Großteil seines Verlaufs begradigt und kanalisiert. Er entspringt in der Nähe von Storm Lake im Südwesten des Buena Vista County. Er fließt zunächst südlich ins Sac County. Im Süden des Sac County ändert er seine Richtung auf Südwest. Nebenflüsse des Boyer River sind der und der Willow River. (de)
- La rivière Boyer est un affluent de la rivière Missouri, 189,9 km de long, dans l'ouest de Iowa aux États-Unis. La plupart des tronçons du cours de la rivière ont été redressés et canalisée. La rivière Boyer doit son nom à un colon qui a chassé et piégé dans le bassin versant avant l'époque de Lewis et Clark. Explorateurs, y compris Lewis et Clark, Jean-Jacques Audubon et Prince Maximilian zu Wied-Neuwied, a traversé la région près de l'embouchure du Boyer alors qu'ils remontaient la Rivière Missouri. Cette zone fait maintenant partie de la Réserve nationale de faune (NWR). Il s'agissait à l'origine d'une île de sable et de sédiments déposée dans la rivière Missouri par la rivière Boyer. Progressivement, la rivière Missouri a érodé un chenal majeur (chute) à travers les sédiments; ceci es (fr)
