Once I saw the Buffalo I realised the list is legit. If you can ever float Ponca to Pruitt when the water is running do it!

You need to add the Jack's Fork, Current and 11 Point to Missouri.

There is a point just outside my hometown of Olney, Texas, where if a rain drop were to hit precisely on it, 1/3 of the water would go to the Gulf through the Mississippi, 1/3 through the Trinity, and 1/3 through the Brazos. It's just kind of a gradual slope, but you can see a pretty long way from what seems like a rather ordinary patch of prairie.

One cool thing about the Tombigbee River is that it's part of the Great Loop. You can navigate through part of it in a small craft from Mobile Bay all the way up to Chicago and over to the Eastern seaboard and through Caloosahatchee River in Florida to the Gulf, back to Mobile Bay.


Got a cabin on the Tombigbee in Greene County, AL. We see boats from all over pass by doing the Great Loop. It's pretty cool to see where some of them are coming from

Grew up across the river in Sumter County where my mom was from and my dad was from Greene County. I frequently take Highway 11 instead of traveling the interstate and consider myself home when I see the White Bluffs at Epes.

Would love to go on the great loop someday.

The MS is one of the nastiest rivers in America. Quite literally, where all the shite pours in and dumps into the gulf. But, it has long been a mainstay for American economic growth.

You wade through the shite to get pearls like this with Harry Rex. Even topped it off with a link to Turnpike.
