Young Womans Creek - Right Branch

Right Branch

The northernmost branches of the creek are the County Line Branch and the Dyer Branch, which joins the County Line Branch in the midst of Susquehannock State Forest. The Wilcox Branch has its origins further south, running along the east side of Lecox Ridge in the forest, and emptying into the County Line Branch just south of the Potter County line, in Clinton County. By this time, the converging branches both lie in deep, wooded gorges. The Baldwin Branch rises to the east near the Pump Station Fire Tower and reaches the County Line Branch a little below the last confluence, forming the main stream of the Right Branch. Benson Run discharges into the Baldwin Branch a little above the confluence.

The valley is now somewhat wider, but very steep-sided. Lebo Run empties into it a little further below, and then Laurel Fork. Bull Run enters the creek just before it enters Sproul State Forest and meets McUrquoy Run. Summerson Run and then Shaney Brook also enter it before it leaves the state forest, and, just below, joins the Left Branch to form the main stream.

Famous quotes containing the word branch:

    She saw a dust bearing bee sink into the sanctum of a bloom; the thousand sister calxes arch to meet the love embrace and the ecstatic shiver of the tree from root to tiniest branch creaming in every blossom and frothing with delight. So this was a marriage!
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    In communist society, where nobody has one exclusive sphere of activity but each can become accomplished in any branch he wishes, society regulates the general production and thus makes it possible for me to do one thing today and another tomorrow, to hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize after dinner, just as I have a mind, without ever becoming hunter, fisherman, shepherd or critic.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
