La Roe River est un cours d'eau coulant depuis les Giant Springs jusqu'au Missouri à Great Falls dans le Montana. Il mesure seulement 61 mètres de long.

Histoire

Les élèves de l'école primaire de Great Falls ont mené une campagne afin de le faire reconnaître comme le plus court du monde par le Livre Guinness des records. Auparavant, c'était le fleuve D dans l'Oregon qui détenait ce titre. Les habitants de la ville de Lincoln City où se trouve le fleuve D envoyèrent une nouvelle mesure, de 36 mètres, au Livre Guinness des records afin de récupérer le titre. Finalement à partir de 2006, la catégorie du cours d'eau le plus court en fut retirée.
