From Pacific To Atlantic

Here's a bit of useless trivia for you:
The Panama Canal is not the only water line connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. There's a place in Wyoming—deep in the Teton Wilderness Area of the Bridger-Teton National Forest—in which a creek splits in two. Like the canal, this creek connects the two oceans dividing North America in two parts.
 
Yes. You read that right: North America is divided in two parts by a single water line that—no matter how hard you try not to—you will have to cross to go from North to South and vice versa.
This creek divides the US connecting the Atlantic and Pacific oceans 
 
Hit the link for the full scoop.  I'm not sure how this might come in handy, but I do think it's pretty cool to know.
