White Clay Creek is born and matures in the beautiful, rolling countryside near the Delaware-Pennsylvania state line. It makes a surprisingly quiet journey through a sprawl of the northeast urban corridor by remaining in patches of fields and woods all the way. This route begins on Chambers Rock Road and zigzags down a mostly forest, narrow valley and through short ravines. Plenty of gentle rock gardens and gravel riffles add some spice to the run. Be prepared for little dams and weirs and occasional fallen trees.
