Cruising America's Great Loop and other inland routes
View all threadsWith the water level changes over the summer and the recent storm, does
anyone have a feel for the down bound barge traffic along the Mississippi,
south of St Louis. Are there excessive backups? Is it difficult to
navigate the area with the low water?
