Best Answer

The river does not run through the whole US: it only runs through a few states. But you can travel from very near the northernmost point of the US (Minnesota) to one of the southernmost points (Louisiana delta).

The Missouri River (a western tributary of the Mississippi) is slightly longer and passes through a larger number of states, but is not nearly as navigable.
Yes and no. You could from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes, but not across to CA or the west coast. It will mainly take you through the center of the country.

A person traveling down the Mississippi River from north to south in the United States can travel almost the entire length of America. The Mississippi River originates in Minnesota at Lake Itasca, which is south of the Canadian border.

No. You can only go from New Orleans to Lake Itasca in Minnesota, about 150 miles from the Canadian border.

No, because it stops short of the top of the United States.
