The Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association is advising the public to refrain from water activities on the Yellow Breeches Creek, due to unsafe water quality conditions.
The world-renowned limestone stream, Yellow Breeches Creek, originates on South Mountain, in Michaux State Forest, Cumberland Valley, near Walnut Bottom. From there, the Yellow Breeches meanders through the Valley's farmland, forested areas, and suburbs, and joins the Susquehanna River near New Cumberland. The main stem of the Yellow Breeches is some 49 miles long & 60 feet wide at its middle stretch.
