Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pochuck Creek is a tributary of the Wallkill River in Sussex County, New Jersey in the United States. Pochuck Creek is called Wawayanda Creek (pronounced "way way yonda") above its confluence with the tributary Black Creek. It starts northeast of Warwick, New York and runs mostly within Orange County, New York, dipping into New Jersey for several miles just north of Highland Lakes, before returning to New York. The Wallkill River, a tributary of the Hudson, drains Lake Mohawk in Sparta, New Jersey, flowing from there generally northeasterly 94 miles (151 km) into New York, where it drains into Rondout Creek near Rosendale, with the combined flows reaching the Hudson at Kingston. The river is often said to be unusual because it flows north between two major south-flowing rivers, the Hudson and the Delaware River. It also has the unusual distinction of being a river that drains into a creek, due to being impounded shortly before the Rondout confluence into a small body of water called Sturgeon Pool near Rifton, and what reaches the Rondout from there is the lesser flow.
