Mahantango Creek (Snyder County) edit

  • ... that Mahantango Creek is only 2 miles (3.2 km) long, but drains an area of 86 square miles (220 km2)?

5x expanded by Jakec (talk). Self nominated at 21:29, 10 May 2014 (UTC).

New enough (Expansion began on May 9); Long enough (5x expansion: Feb 7 size 949B, May 10 size: 4797B [5x 949 = 4745]); Hook interesting and short enough (101 characters); Length and watershed claims for the creek check out from USGS/Pennsylvania Gazette sources. Good to go.  Philg88 talk 07:41, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
