Parting of the Waters is an unusual hydrologic site at Two Ocean Pass on the Great Divide, within the Teton Wilderness area of Wyoming's Bridger-Teton National Forest. Two Ocean Pass separates the headwaters of Pacific Creek, which flows west to the Pacific Ocean, and , which flows east to the Atlantic Ocean. At Parting of the Waters, at 44°02.571′N 110°10.524′W / 44.042850°N 110.175400°W, North Two Ocean Creek flows down from its drainage on the side of Two Ocean Plateau in and divides its waters roughly equally between its two distributaries, Pacific Creek and Atlantic Creek. From this split, Two Ocean Creek waters flow either 3,488 miles (5,613 km) to the Gulf of Mexico via Atlantic Creek and the Yellowstone, Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, or 1,353 miles (2,177 km) to the Pacific vi

- Parting of the Waters is an unusual hydrologic site at Two Ocean Pass on the Great Divide, within the Teton Wilderness area of Wyoming's Bridger-Teton National Forest. Two Ocean Pass separates the headwaters of Pacific Creek, which flows west to the Pacific Ocean, and , which flows east to the Atlantic Ocean. At Parting of the Waters, at 44°02.571′N 110°10.524′W / 44.042850°N 110.175400°W, North Two Ocean Creek flows down from its drainage on the side of Two Ocean Plateau in and divides its waters roughly equally between its two distributaries, Pacific Creek and Atlantic Creek. From this split, Two Ocean Creek waters flow either 3,488 miles (5,613 km) to the Gulf of Mexico via Atlantic Creek and the Yellowstone, Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, or 1,353 miles (2,177 km) to the Pacific via Pacific Creek and the Snake and Columbia Rivers. In the marshy area of Two Ocean Pass adjacent to Parting of the Waters, water actually covers the Continental Divide such that a fish could swim from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean drainages. In fact, it is thought that this was the pass that provided the route for Yellowstone cutthroat trout to migrate from the Snake River (Pacific) to Yellowstone River (Atlantic) drainages. This site received designation as a National Natural Landmark in 1965, bearing the official name of Two Ocean Pass National Natural Landmark. However, Parting of the Waters, by which this site is more commonly known, is actually about 0.4 miles (0.6 km) northwest of the low point of Two Ocean Pass, where North Two Ocean Creek emerges from its drainage basin on the side of Two Ocean Plateau. Inasmuch as North Two Ocean Creek splits into streams that flow separately to the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the entire drainage of North Two Ocean Creek lies within an area that makes up the "Continental Divide" at this place.

- Parting of the Waters (traduisible en « séparation des eaux » ou « partage des eaux ») est un site hydrologique inusuel, situé au lieu nommé Two Ocean Pass sur la ligne continentale de partage des eaux, dans le secteur de la dans la située dans l'état du Wyoming. À Parting of the Waters, Two Ocean Pass sépare de manière à peu près égale les eaux venues la rivière North Two Ocean Creek pour constituer :
* , qui s'écoule vers l'ouest vers l'océan Pacifique, par un parcours de 2 177 km via Pacific Creek, la rivière Snake et le fleuve Columbia ;
* , qui coule vers l'est à destination de l'océan Atlantique, l'eau parcourant 5 613 km via Atlantic Creek et la rivière Yellowstone, le Missouri (rivière) le Mississippi. Dans la zone marécageuse de Two Ocean Pass adjacente, l'eau est présente toute l'année, ce qui pourrait permettre aux poissons de nager d'un océan à l'autre. Il est d'ailleurs envisagé que ce lieu soit le chemin emprunté par les truites fardées du Yellowstone pour migrer de la Snake River (côté Pacifique) vers la Yellowstone River (côté Atlantique). Le site est un National Natural Landmark depuis 1965, sous le nom officiel de Two Ocean Pass National Natural Landmark. Cependant, Parting of the Waters, suivant son nom usuel, est situé environ 640 m au nord-ouest du point bas de Two Ocean Pass, où North Two Ocean Creek est en exsurgence de Two Ocean Plateau. La topographie de Parting of the Waters est telle que l'exsurgence de North Two Ocean Creek se passe à un endroit où la ligne de séparation des eaux fait une arête. (fr)
