The headwaters of the Missouri River is in Montana, just outside the city of Three Forks. Here, the Jefferson, Gallatin, and Madison Rivers all come together to form the Missouri River. The headwaters were discovered in 1804 by the explorers, Lewis and Clark. They also named the three rivers that come together at the place they named Three Forks.
