(Redirected from Little Bush Kill)
Big Bushkill Creek (Bush Kill on federal maps[1]) is a 30.1-mile-long (48.4 km)[2] tributary of the Delaware River in the Pocono Mountains region of Northeastern Pennsylvania.[3]
It originates from Pecks Pond 41°16′51″N 75°05′14″W / 41.2808°N 75.0872°W in Pike County. It flows south, entering Pickerel Lake and then into Beaver Run Pond. Most of the stream travels through Delaware State Forest before entering Monroe County. It is a prominent feature of Resica Falls Scout Reservation.
Bush Kill joins the Delaware River at the village of Bushkill.[3]
