About Mississippi River
The Mississippi River is the largest river of North America, draining with its major tributaries an area of approximately 1.2 million sq mi (3.1 million sq km), or about one-eighth of the entire continent. The Mississippi River lies entirely in the United States. Rising in Lake Itasca in Minnesota, it flows almost due south across the continental interior, collecting the waters of its major tributaries, the Missouri River (to the west) and the Ohio River (to the east), approximately halfway along its journey to the Gulf of Mexico through a vast delta southeast of New Orleans, a total distance of 2,350 mi.
Hannibal, Missouri is located along the Mississippi River in northeast Missouri, approximately 100 miles north of St. Louis. The community is intersected by Highway 61 (Avenue of the Saints) and Highway 36 (Chicago to Kansas City Expressway). Hannibal provides convenient, four-lane highway access to St. Louis, Kansas City, Chicago, Memphis, Des Moines, and Minneapolis.
Today, Hannibal is a community of approximately 17,000 people. Hannibal is a wonderful place to live, work, shop, or simply visit. Hannibal has a number of local industries, including General Mills (ranked 69 out of the 100 best companies to work for by Fortune magazine for 2008), Watlow Electric, Buckhorn Rubber, Cosmoflex, Spartan Metal, Enduro Industries, Continental Cement, Hannibal LaGrange University, Hannibal Regional Hospital, the Hannibal Clinic, and nearby BASF. Hannibal also has a Collegiate League Baseball franchise, the Hannibal Cavemen, who play in the Clemens Field in downtown Hannibal.
Dubuque, a city of about 80,000, is situated in eastern Iowa on the banks of the Mississippi River. Dubuque is known for its extensive collection of Mississippi River Boats. Daily trips can be made cruising the river in one of these boats and some offer gambling and overnight trips. Other Dubuque area attractions include Cathedral Square, Crystal Lake Cave, Dubuque Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, Dubuque Museum of Art and the Mississippi River Museum. If time permits,
visitors may view the site of the filming of the motion picture "Field of Dreams" which was shot in the Dubuque area.
