Headwater of the Mississippi
By Linda Tancs
The mighty Mississippi River ends in the Gulf of Mexico (or, if you prefer, the Gulf of America). As for where it begins, you might be surprised to learn that the answer is Lake Itasca in Minnesota, a small glacial lake. It’s located in Itasca State Park, where taking your picture next to the iconic headwaters post is a must! The park is open daily.
