Learn about cruising conditions on the Down East Loop in this article from Waterway Guide.

The Upper Mississippi (from Port Charles to the Twin Cities) is a Great Loop side trip that may be considered "the road less traveled". Join us as Dick Heusinkveld shares the details of the side trip he and Louise took aboard their Endeavor Cat, Nine Lives, last summer. Dick joins us from the Ohio River which is this year's side trip to his Great Loop adventure. Learn why you might want to consider taking the time to cruise to Minneapolis/St. Paul in this week's episode.

This year's Loopers may have time for extra side trips while they wait for the Illinois Waterway locks to reopen. Mike & Deb Hervey, who have made multiple trips to the largest of the Great Lakes, tell you why you should consider cruising Lake Superior. They'll share the details on visiting the south shore and what you'll find there, as well as the more rugged and remote north shore. Join us for more on this amazing side trip to your Great Loop adventure.

Learn all about cruising the Down East Loop from this 6-part webinar series that was created in 2022.
