The segment of the trip along 26 and 49 until you get to Route 13 is nothing special. Route 13 has a few nice curves in the first half of the route and runs along some rural farm land. The second half is not quite as impressive and the road is a bit rough. The segment that is really interesting is scenic route 587. This road has several twists and turns and will allow you to run a spirited ride through the countryside.

I have lived in Mississippi most of my life, I did not know there was a Red Bluff or anything like it. Very surprising.
