The Plan

 As we prepare for the final leg of our journey home, many people have asked: What Rivers? How many miles? Upstream or downstream? Great questions!

Here's the plan:

Dog River (Turner Marina) to the Port of Mobile  - 12 miles

Black Warrior River/Tenn-Tom/Tombigbee Rivers - 450 miles (upstream)

Tennessee River/Kentucky Lakes - 215 miles (downstream)

Ohio River - 46 miles (downstream)

Mississippi River - 212 miles (upstream)

Illinois River - 301 miles (upstream)

Calumet Sag Channel - 30 miles (upstream)

Lake Michigan via New Buffalo to Grand Haven - 130 miles (no current, no tides, unsalted)

Total Miles - 1396
