Conodoquinet Creek This river looks great. It is little wider than the Brandywine for the most part and situated in a mix of forest, agriculture, and residential. I was able to see a few ripples and chutes. The water looks to be moving medium fast. Info suggests 1.7 ft is needed at the http://waterdata.usgs.gov/pa/nwis/uv?01570000 gauge. It was reading an average 2.0 on Sunday and there was plenty of water.
