5 MPG !! 5 MPG !!
Is this possible or do I have a SNAFU with the calc. 160 miles /32 gal = 5 MPG
Maybe my mileage is off. Anybody have a method of calculating the distance traveled on a river? I have a trip function on my GPS but never used it. My 8 year old hasn't got that far with her teachings.

Well you know your take off and return point...if you know where you turned around, can you verify distance on a chart?...
