The Mississippi is widest above its navigable portion, where it is 11 miles wide at Lake Winnibigoshish.

It reaches its widest navigable width downstream from its confluence with the Missouri River (near Alton, IL) where it is nearly 1 mile across.

It is about 1/2 mile wide at New Orleans, LA before entering its delta.
