Gauge Information
Gandy Creek
River DescriptionGandy Creek provides the majority of flow to the Dry Fork of the Cheat at its confluence. It thus enjoys similar levels to the section of the Dry Fork of the Cheat that follows it. The Gandy Creek section, however, is more scenic because it is part of the National Forest, with a forest road paralleling it for most of its most of its length.Combine the lower part of this with the Dry Fork for a good Class II-III run at 4.5 feet on the Hendricks gauge.
