White Creek is a stream in White County, Georgia, and is a tributary of the Chattahoochee River. The creek is approximately 8.07 miles (12.99 km) long.[1]
Course
[edit]
White Creek rises in southeastern White County, Georgia, north of Mossy Creek and west of Leaf, just north of State Route 115.[2] The creek runs generally south-southeast for approximately 4.7 miles, crosses State Route 254 just northeast of Mossy Creek, and then picks up Flat Creek east of Mossy Creek. Less than a mile further, White Creek forms Webster Lake, then winds south for another 2 miles, before flowing into the Chattahoochee River just northeast of Rogers Mill.[3]
Sub-watershed details
[edit]The creek watershed and associated waters is designated by the United States Geological Survey as sub-watershed HUC 031300010301, is named the White Creek-Chattahoochee River sub-watershed, and drains an area of approximately 15 square miles southeast of Cleveland, and north and west of the Chattahoochee River.[3]
