Description: This is the canoeable headwaters of Fish Creek which winds its way across West Virginia. It runs down a narrow valley with farming on the wide plain areas. [Reported 1996]

Difficulties: None, if you put in below the cattle fence mentioned in the shuttle.

Shuttle: From Deep Valley, go west on State Route 3001. Turn left on State Route 3010 and look for a substantial wooden cattle fence across the creek. Put in just downstream of this. Ask permission to launch. To reach the take‑out, continue down State Route 3010 to the Georgetown Road Bridge.

Gauge: None. Look at the creek as you run the shuttle.

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.
