Love these types of map. It got me thinking about that northward bend in the Tennessee River that cuts back across the state and towards KY before hitting the Ohio and if anyone ever thought about cutting a canal to the Mississippi.
Turns out they cut the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway down south into Alabama which then connected to the gulf. Completed in 1984.
Looks weird with the Great Lakes lopped off at the international border.
Central Valley is massive
Post this map every time someone asks the question about why more people don’t live out west
Also why I believe the Great Lakes region is going to experience a boom in population and economic growth in the next century as fresh water’s value grows.
I would love one of these for the Amazon basin
Lake Erie looks so funny when you only show the US part. Like a little sliver.
The cynic in me’s first thought
“The north half of the great salt lake isn’t blue anymore….”
This map clearly highlights and shows the impact of the Great Basin.
Interesting fact, every single river in Colorado starts in Colorado.
Need aquifers 🙂
I love that you can nearly make most of WVs actual border.
While the Mississippi River is huge, it’s not as large as you might assume. The Amazon River’s output is an order of magnitude larger.
Well I guess the Chesapeake Bay can just fuck right off
Interesting to think that along the Continental Divide a raindrop could fall on one side of the mountain and end up in the Gulf/Atlantic Ocean or yet just inches away end up in Pacific Ocean.
