TRIPS
CRUISE
THE TRANQUIL BALD EAGLE CREEK
This quiet 7.5 mile section of the Bald Eagle Creek meanders along Bald
Eagle Valley on one side and is nestled along Bald Eagle Ridge on the
other, making this section of stream very secluded. The put-in for this
trip is just northeast of State College (about a 25-min. drive). Most
people paddle this 7.5 mile section in 3 to 4 hours, with a lunch stop
along the way. Fishing for smallmouth bass is excellent. Wildlife sightings
are common. Keep watch for mink, turtles, fish and whitetail deer. This
is a flyway for many migratory birds. There are eagles, owls, blue and
green herons, ducks and other water-fowl that frequent the stream.

picnic areas along the shoreline. Fish for trout, bass and other kinds
of fish. Paddle along the shoreline and discover the beauty of this mountain
