Montana, Oregon, and Massachusetts? Wow, that is one long river.
shareThe Missouri River flows through nine states, rivers are long.
shareThe opening scene is shot in Boston, MA. The family is "from" Boston.

I was sure this was filmed in Canada, on the Elbow and Bow River in Alberta,, near Calgary. These rivers are used in a lot of films, Kevin Costner has filmed out here a lot, its where Clint Eastwood filmed "Unforgiven".
shareMore details on locations are now available on imdb, but I would really like to read more about the exact locations and sequence of the paths taken in the story's journey. Here are the listed locations:
Boston, Massachusetts, USA
Glacier National Park, Montana, USA
Grants Pass, Oregon, USA
Kootenai River, Libby, Montana, USA
Libby, Montana, USA
