Blacklog Creek
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Blacklog Creek is a tributary of Aughwick Creek in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania in the United States.
It arises in the Tuscarora State Forest and flows southwestward between Blacklog Mountain to the northwest and Shade Mountain to the southeast, forming the Blacklog Valley. After a long run down the valley, it joins Shade Creek and turns west, carving the Blacklog Narrows through Blacklog Mountain. This gap carries U.S. Route 522 and the abandoned grade of the East Broad Top Railroad's Shade Gap Branch, and was formerly the site of the Winchester and Rockhill iron furnaces. Blacklog Creek flows between Rockhill and Orbisonia, cuts through Saddle Back Ridge and joins Aughwick Creek approximately two miles downstream of the two towns.
