River Features
Put-in - Hudsondale, PA
Put-in - Hudsondale, PA It is recommended that before you unload that you knock on the door of the river right house and ask permission. Alternatively it has been suggested that if you turn right on Brenkman Drive from northbound PA 93 towards Weatherly. On your right hand side there is a very small rivulet that feeds into the Quakake. If there is enough water in that stream then there will be enough water for you to enjoy the ride down the Quakake to the Black. It also means that you don't have to deal with the folks that own land around the bridge on 93 because you can float the small stream into the main flow. Put in on the tiny stream and get ready to duck some trees - you'll be at the Quakake in no time and on your way into the Black Creek Gorge. Very scenic and if the water is pumping, you will be in for a surprise of run once you hit the confluence of Quakake and Black creek.
