River Description

This is a very small steep creek draining into the Clarion River. It will take a significant amount of rain or snow melt to bring it up, but once up it is wild looking. One section drops 60 feet in a half mile, but be aware of low pipeline crossings and downed trees. If you run this, please post your comments on this page.

Just ran Canoe Creek the other day and forgot my camera or I would have got some nice pictures. It
is a fun little creek with some nice drops along the way and decent little boofs here and there.
Just like any of the small creeks in this area you have to be cautious of wood. There was plenty of
wood yesterday with one spot that we had to portage. Other than that its basically class III read
and run.
