Day 58 (Part 3 - Day 21) Mound, LA → Westside, MS

54 Miles today, 1918 Miles Total!

Nothing like a 10 mile paddle before breakfast!

Ian, Troy and Brandon got an early start this moring so they could make a quick pit stop in Vicksburg, MS. What better breakfast than a Waffle House! After breakfast the guys hit the water for another 44 miles! They were planning on just going 40 miles, until they realized the best island campsite was just 4 more.

The guys were treated with a nice breeze until about 1pm. Unfortunately, the breeze stopped and the heat intensified. So, they took a little dip in the River to cool off! Overall, it was a great day on the water, reaching under 400 miles to go!

Also, congratulations to Bert Givens on guessing the closest town to today's endpoint! Hazelhurst is exactly east from their island on the Mississippi! Send us a message and we'll send you a surprise gift!
