Veritas Caput

"True Head" in Latin, the two words from witch a Henry Schoolcraft derived the name "Itasca," referring to the true headwaters of the Mississippi River. I'm not much of a geologist...I'm not even from anywhere NEAR there...but I think it's a cool story. That's why it is my username!

I'm 23 years old, born and raised in the great State of Minnesota, and fanatic about the history of it. I'm a veteran of Operation Iraqi Freedom, I LIVE hockey, and I work for the Railroad (Soo Line/Canadian Pacific).
