Continental Divide
The Continental Divide marks the high ridge in North America that separates waters flowing into the Pacific Ocean from those flowing into the Atlantic Ocean.
It is known as the Continental Divide.
In the USA, the "continental divide" is the Rocky Mountains range of mountains. East of that, all rivers flow to the Atlantic Ocean or the Gulf of Mexico. West of the "Continental Divide", rivers flow west into the Pacific Ocean.
The continental divide is an imaginary line that separates the direction in which water flows on the North American continent. Water on one side of the divide flows towards one ocean, while water on the other side flows towards a different ocean.
New Mexico New Mexico is the southernmost state in which the continental divide is located. The Divide (essentially the Rocky Mountains) runs from Montana and Idaho, south through Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico.
the continental divide is a natural boundary in the USA that separates waters that flow into the Atlantic Ocean from those that flow into the Pacific Ocean. Also known as Great divide.
The Continental Divide divides the region into two large drainage areas. To the east of the Divide, waters, flow to the Arctic Ocean, to the Hudson Bay, or to the Atlantic oceans through the Mississippi River system. To the West, they flow into the Pacific Ocean
The Continental Divide separates the watershed of the Pacific, Arctic, and Atlantic oceans meaning that drainage down the east of the mountain range will go into the Atlantic, while westward drainage will flow into the Pacific. The Continental Divide in the United States is located in the Rocky Mountain Range. The states that contain the Great Divide from north to south: - Montana - Idaho - Wyoming - Colorado - New Mexico - Arizona

It doesn't have to be a high ridge, but in any event, it is the 'Continental Divide'.
If there are then it's because they haven't been discovered, and as soon as they are discovered, the location of the continental divide will be adjusted so they don't. By definition of the continental divide, the answer is "no". River sources define the Continental Divide, not the other way round.
