Answer:

It crosses or borders ten states (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana) before emptying into the Gulf of Mexico, 160 km downstream from New Orleans. A drop of rain that falls on Lake Itasca takes about 90 days to reach the Gulf of Mexico.
