I have made that trip hundreds of times and can assure you that it is south bound down the Ohio and the Tenn.
No, you're correct. It is south on those two rivers and I overlooked that as I was thinking from the Ohio to Crafton. I thought you were thinking of a return trip.

I see the Tennessee and Ohio as being relatively simple except lock delays, but a much different type of boating once he hits the Mississippi.
