This section of Loyalsock Creek is the premier whitewater section and runs from US 220 to Forksville. The most famous rapids are the Haystacks, a Class IV rapid that are very technical consisting of large boulders where the creek swirls and drops a couple of feet. It is located about 2-3 miles downstream from the 220 bridge and if desired, there is a put in after the rapids. There is another Class IV rapid a few miles downstream, but most rapids are II-III+, with the creek almost always dropping and not providing many resting places. The creek can be run from Mar - Oct, but the best times are during the spring snowmelt or after heavy rainfall. Nearing the take out at Worlds End State Park is an amazing "S" shaped gorge about 800 feet deep.
