Description: The creek runs through the center of Evans City then flows down a valley shared with the road and a railroad. You will not see much of either, because of the high bushy banks. [Reported 1998]
Difficulties: None
Shuttle: To find
the put-in, take State Route 68 to Evans City. At the traffic light
just east of the railroad tracks, turn south onto S. Washington Street.
S. Washington Street becomes Mars-Evans City Road. About 0.4 miles south
of State Route 68 turn right/west on Maple Avenue and put in at the
bridge. To reach the take‑out, return to Evans City and turn left/west on
State Route 68. Follow State Route 68 for about 2.4 miles
to Textor School Road. Turn right/northeast on Textor School Road. Cross the
railroad tracks and take out at the first bridge.
Gauge: None. The shallowest spot is one block north of where you make the turn onto State Route 68 in Evans City,
Normal Wet Period: No available statistics on seasons. Since this section is tiny, it should normally be runnable only after a heavy rain or during spring snowmelt.
