Red Bluff Routes
To get to Red Bluff (from Covington, LA) take LA 21 all the way to the Mississippi state line where it becomes MS 35. Take MS 35 to a right turn on US 98 just west of Columbia, MS. Cross the overpass and prepare to take a left turn on MS 587 right by the BP gas station. Take MS 587 to Morgantown. We usually park at the closed store across from the church next to the railroad tracks.

The route is basically an out and back with several variations:

Monticello Out and Back
Take MS 587 to Monticello for a store stop, turn around and come back.
Total is about 45 miles.
