Barge on the Tombigbee
This river is a challenge, namely for its lack of upkeep. While some Mississippi rivers have national park staff keeping them clear, Old Tombigbee is a mess. But this is not necessarily a bad thing. It can be a lot of work and a lot of fun to snake your way through downed trees and under overgrown bushes. It also can be quite shallow at times, so canoes may not be a good idea. The Old Tombigbee will probably be enjoyed most by those with small kayaks since canoes may have difficulty weaving through the foliage.
