This waterway-themed issue of Byways Magazine highlights scenic rivers and lakes that shape North America’s culture and landscape. It begins with Florida’s Suwannee River, rich in Southern charm and heritage, then flows north to New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee, a classic family retreat. The journey continues to the Maumee River in the Midwest, steeped in Native American and industrial history, and Lake Ouachita in Arkansas, a serene haven for outdoor lovers. Out West, readers explore Utah’s Green River and Oregon’s wild John Day River. Also featured is the 75th anniversary of Lake Mead National Recreation Area. A perfect issue for road trippers and tour planners.
