Keosaqua to Keokuk

Gravel Segment
From Iowa Rd, Keosauqua, Van Buren County to Iowa Rd, Keokuk, Lee County, Iowa
Route that follows the Des Moines river valley all the way to Keokuk. Can be combined with the route from Ottumwa to Keosaqua for a multi-day bikepacking trip. The route includes a stop at Chatfield park to set up camp and a trip to Hyvee in Keokuk to pick up groceries (there and back). Only a couple miles of pavement and I tried my best to avoid highway 61.
