Sounds like it be a good place to head in the spring time. When the water levels are usually higher.

Hoosier, it has been dry up here, so I was happy to see this much water. It'll be beautiful with more rain. A friend also tells me yellow trilliums grow here, something I need to see.

Great images. I fished this little stream once, loved the hike, but didn't find any trout. Area streams are mixed. Some have brook trout. Others may be too acidic due to swampy headwaters and/or low-buffering headwaters bedrock (red brook has both). Perhaps I just didn't find the trout, but this little stream may not have trout because of an unusual feature: the underground stretch down by the Mehoopany. If a drought or snowmelt acidity depletes the fish, they cant recolonize past the underground stretch? Nice area, have seen bears round there; no surprise, of course.
(Image below shows that the posted stream has headwaters geology like nearby scouten brook, which does have trout. Red brook has very low-buffering pottsville bedrock at its headwaters (Pottsville bedrock is shaded light green on image below), and swampy headwaters that color its water, so it may be a less good candidate for trout.)
