Continental Divide Flight
See where America’s great rivers begin on a 45-minute flight over Yellowstone’s Continental Divide!
You've heard of rivers like the Mississippi and Snake, but have you wondered where they begin? Yellowstone is home to many headwaters, and West Yellowstone sits at the Continental Divide, where water flows either to the Gulf of Mexico or the Pacific Ocean.
In the air, you will get to experience a bird's-eye perspective of the waterways that travel out of Yellowstone National Park and see exactly how the rivers play such a critical role in shaping the land around you.
On this tour, you will not only see how water shapes the landscape but also learn about the importance these waters played in shaping America's history. Starting on either side of the divide, you will fly along the rivers, watching them carve out the terrain, and see exactly where the water switches direction.
