About This Access Site
Put In - Just above PA 879 crossing is a whitewater put-in located on Deer Creek, a tributary of the West Branch Susquehanna River in Girard Township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania. This access point serves paddlers looking to navigate the whitewater sections of Deer Creek in the region. The put-in is situated just upstream of where PA Route 879 crosses the creek, making it a convenient launching point for kayakers and canoeists interested in exploring this tributary system.

Deer Creek offers whitewater paddling opportunities suitable for paddlers with intermediate to advanced skills. The creek's current and technical nature require experience in reading water and maneuvering through faster-moving sections. Paddlers should be prepared for typical stream conditions including potential obstacles and varying water levels depending on recent rainfall and seasonal flow patterns.
