Correct me if I am mistaken, but isn't the Colorado River longer than the Brazos?

  • According to the Handbook of Texas online, the Colorado is 600 miles long, and the Brazos is 840. Deh 20:29, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
    • But according to the Wikipedia article, the Colorado is 894 miles long. The Handbook says that the Colorado is the "largest" river wholly in Texas, when measured in "length and drainage area", but doesn't specify what that means, and says that the Brazos is "the longest river in Texas". So despite all these words, I don't claim to know the answer. But let me tell you to watch out for alligator garr. very big, very scary. Deh 20:43, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
