Outside of Three Forks, Montana, the Madison, Jefferson, and Gallatin Rivers join to form the start of the Missouri River. If you got on an innertube here you'd float to the Gulf of Mexico in two and a half months.
You know who Jefferson and Madison were, but how about Gallatin?
He was the Secretary of the Treasury, the man who'd sign the check to pay Lewis and Clark.
