The Gallatin & The Missouri Rivers

Back to the River this week!  Here, the Gallatin flows into the Missouri near Three Forks, MT.  The Gallatin is the third of the ‘three forks’ to enter, making the confluence the official source of the Missouri River.   Taken on July 29, 2016. 

Here’s a view looking downstream at the (official) Source, taken from the confluence gravel bar shown in mid-picture above.
