Originating from Fossil Springs, this small creek can offer some fun and exciting paddling for those willing to take a hike to have the experience. Starting from the start of the springs requires a 3-mile downhill hike. The flow in the creek is pretty low so you can expect to get stuck and have obstacles along the way but there is a decent amount of whitewater throughout that make it worthwhile. There are some waterfalls and large drops that may require portaging depending on water levels and skill level of the paddler so be pay close attention and scout the creek as much as possible. Also watch out for lots of strainers or log jams that may be present. Boat size is an issue when running Fossil Creek so smaller boats are recommended.
