For years, Canoe and Trail Outpost has been helping adventure-seekers get out on the Bogue Chitto River and Magee’s Creek by offering canoe, kayak, and tube rentals.
Though the average float time is 10 hours, it could take longer, depending on how often you stop at the sandbars along the way. One of the best things about the overnight trip, though, is that you can camp right on the river’s edge.
