The quote. The Mighty Mississippi begins as a “mere 18-foot wide knee-deep river in Itasca State Park” in Minnesota. An interesting area to visit. https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/Itasca/headwaters.html

My wife and I visited there several years ago. We had a great time. I live just miles away from the headwaters of the Missouri. In contrast to the Mississippi, the Missouri begins where three rivers (Madison, Jefferson and Gallatin) merge into one. The Missouri actually runs from south to north up to Great Falls and then turns eastward.
