Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Raccoon Creek, also called the Raccoon River, is a tributary of the Delaware River in southern New Jersey in the United States. Raccoon Creek rises to the west of Glassboro, and flows east, meeting Cartwheel Brook at Wrights Mill. Just below, it is impounded to form Gilman Lake. It turns to the north and is again dammed to form Ewan Lake. Clems Run and Miery Run empty into the stream, which is steeply banked on the east side. It flows through Mullica Hill (formerly the head of navigation), where it is dammed to form Mullica Hill Pond, and turns east again, flowing through a wide but steep valley. The South Branch (of the creek) joins it about 1.5 mi (2.4 km) east of the town. Flowing along the north side of Swedesboro, the creek becomes tidal and passes under the Locke Avenue moveable bridge, marking more recent limits of navigation.
