High in the Colorado Rockies, at the foot of Mount Bross, you'll find little Buckskin Creek. It's a happy little mountain stream that tumbles down out of the tundra, meandering through the alpine wildflowers and willow bushes, past the aspens and down into the evergreen forests where it will join the Middle Fork of the South Platte River. Taking a break by it banks on a lazy summer day, it's hard to imagine that this water will eventually spill into the sea at the mouth of the Mississippi River in Louisiana. Everybody's gotta start somewhere I guess.
