The depth depends on so many different things including the state of tributaries that empty into the river.
The Army Corps of Engineers has to maintain a 9 ft depth across a 400 ft width of the river, for the barge traffic, but that is by no means the deepest part of the river.
The record depths for the Beale Street gage in Memphis is 234.31 feet as the record high with a record low of 173.91 feet. At that gage the river is very narrow compared with up and downstream widths, so it would include the deepest part of the river.
The Mississippi creeks can get from 3 ft to 8 ft deep. On average depth, most parts of the Mississippi river would be as much as 75 ft.
60 feet
the river running through rock wear it down into deep valley with the steep sides what is it called
It's a gully. Rills are smaller ditches cut by running water, but can be plowed over. Once the ditch is so deep it can't be plowed over, it's a gully.
The deep tree roots help prevent the soil from eroding.

yes
The Mississippi River, Louisiana or Arkansas depending on where you are at and if you are in the deep south a part of the western and southern borders of the State passes over the boot toe of Louisiana before you reach the Mississippi River. Mississippi shares both a western and a southern border with Louisiana and a southern border with the Gulf of Mexico and with Louisiana.
The Mississippi River (the longest river in the USA) is also known as Muddy Mississippi, Old Man River, and Mighty Mississippi.
Pretty much, yes. It is the largest river known in united states. The mississippi river, which starts from minnesota all the way to Gulf of Mexico, is about 2552 miles long. Its maximum width gets about 2.5 miles wide and maximum depth can be 210 ft deep.
From my point of view, most people from Alabama probably have a stronger southern accent (mostly south Alabama). But some parts of Mississippi probably have strong accents as well. Tennessee isn't considered as "deep south" as Alabama & Mississippi.
In the Fall months of 1862, the Confederates stabilized their positions on the Mississippi River by successfully holding off Union forces at Vicksburg and in the bayou country north of New Orleans. They also launched counter attacks in Middle Tennessee and began conducting deep raids with their cavalry forces, led by generals Morgan and Forrest.

Minnesota.
He lead the first European expedition deep into the territory of the modern-day United States, and was the first European documented to have crossed the Mississippi River.
Tennessee is in the south. However, it is not in the "deep south". Tennessee is bordered by Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi to the south, Kentucky and Virginia to the north, North Carolina to the east, and Arkansas and Missouri to the west.
The shallowest parts of the tennessee river are only 1 ft deep.
