<div id="ygrps-yiv-660454025">You might find this link informative; a friend of mine here in Denver had a<br/>
successful campaign to name the point where the Rio Grande, Colorado and<br/>
Mississippi riversheds all meet in the Colorado Rockies as Headwaters Hill.<br/>
It is the point of origin of the Rio Grande, Arkansas (thence to the<br/>
Mississippi) and Gunnison (then into the Colorado) rivers.<br/>

 </span></blockquote>First off, I want to concur with others who have said that your use of<br/>
conventional English would help communications greatly.<br/>
<br/>
Secondly, the Rio Grande does not start in the Great Divide Basin.  That&#39;s<br/>
the whole point of the Great Divide Basin.  How would the river flow out of<br/>
the basin?<br/>
<br/>
The Rio Grande starts in the San Juan Mountains, in SW Colorado, which is<br/>
about 300 miles S of the Great Divide Basin.<br/>
