Dramatic peaks, feet upon feet of snow, glaciers, alpine lakes, and an invisible line that divides the country. Stand with us on the Continental Divide and watch how the water flows to two different oceans. In this episode, we trace the thread of water. Through glaciers, this park is carved and molded. Melted snow run-off fills the lakes and streams that make this park beautiful. AND we talk about how the Colorado River, the river that carves the Grand Canyon, begins in a surprising way.

🎒Scout mission included! Experience our fun mission thats great for trips or the backyard with your family.
