About This Access Site
Anderson Creek at Curwensville is a medium-sized river system in Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, with a total length of 55 miles. This take-out location is positioned in the upper portion of the watershed, approximately 567 miles from the river mouth. The creek drains 142 square miles and maintains an average flow of about 173 cubic feet per second with a moderate gradient of 4.4 feet per mile, creating steady current conditions suitable for whitewater paddling activities.

With an average velocity of 1.6 feet per second and a significant elevation change of 243 feet over the entire stream length, Anderson Creek offers intermediate-level paddling conditions. Boaters should expect moderate current and some whitewater features typical of Pennsylvania's fourth-order streams. The creek's consistent flow and moderate gradient make it a reliable venue for kayaking and canoeing during normal water conditions.

This take-out serves paddlers completing runs on Anderson Creek and provides access to a productive section of the waterway. The location in Curwensville offers a convenient exit point for multi-mile paddling trips downstream from upper creek access points.
