The Mississippi River Valley (aka The Driftless Area) is an outdoor oasis that boasts stunning limestone bluffs, flowing rivers and winding scenic byways. We will travel many of the scenic byways along both the Iowa and Wisconsin side of this Mississippi River. We will take in many scenic views at the various lookout areas as well as visiting several small historic small towns.
