it has 48.5 oxbow lakes.
The Nile River does not have a significant number of oxbow lakes compared to other river systems, primarily due to its size and the nature of its flow. Oxbow lakes typically form in meandering rivers that have a slower flow, allowing for the creation of curved bends that can eventually become isolated. While some localized areas may exhibit this phenomenon, the Nile's characteristics and its extensive management through dams and irrigation limit the formation of oxbow lakes. Thus, specific data on the number of oxbow lakes along the Nile is not well-documented.
The best way to count the amount of Oxbow lakes that there will be in the future would be to count the meanders. This is because an oxbow lake is formed when a meander (a bend in the river) gets so windy that the sides link together. The water will take the shortest route possible and the unused patch of river will dry up. This probably doesn't help much but you should do a bit more research...
We have about 4 major lakes, and countless smaller lakes.
Minneapolis draws about 21 billion of gallons annually from the Mississippi River (sole source of city water supply).

Truman Reservoir (Lake) at 55,600 acres is slightly larger than the 55,000 acre Lake of the Ozarks

There are so many bodies of water in the US. The Montana river flows from Montana to the Mississippi River.
My understanding is the Oxbow Trail was a northward arching trail on the South side of the Platte River between the Missouri River and Fort Kearney, Nebraska. Many used the trail including 49'ers, Mormons, freighters and the military. -Phoebesgrl
