Map the Mississippi Watershed! Teacher Notes: 2. The Mississippi Watershed is all the land area that drains into the Mississippi River. On the map the watershed (or âbasinâ) boundary is indicated by the dashed line that encircles all Mississippi River tributaries. 4. By definition the Mississippi River starts at Lake Itasca in northern Minnesota. However, it can also be said that the Mississippi River starts wherever rain or snow falls in the Mississippi Watershed, because water that flows from land anywhere in the watershed will eventually flow into the Mississippi River. (This is a good point for discussion.) 8. St. Louis 10. The length of the Mississippi River is approximately 2,350 miles.
