I mean making shit up isn’t a joke though. I feel like the humor needs to be based on something real.
Most of the other “islands” are formed by man made canals, so I’m curious what the situation in the Rockies is that allows them to argue those rivers connect.
Isa Lake in Yellowstone Park feeds into tributaries of the Snake (which flows into the Columbia to the Pacific) and the Yellowstone (which flows into the Missouri to the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico).
none of these are true. that’s kind of the joke. it’s an oddly specific hydrology/geology joke

Thanks. That seems to be the origin of the extra braid that crosses the Rockies on the map.
Doesn’t the Colorado go south west from the Rockies, which would make more of these islands?
Only if it’s connected by water to the other major rivers. But I’m not sure if it is.
You must be fun at parties
You know it.
