East Canada Creek is a 34.6-mile-long (55.7 km)[2] river in upstate New York, United States. It is a tributary of the Mohawk River and flows southward from New York's Adirondack Park. The name "Canada" may be derived from the St. Lawrence Iroquoian word Kanata, meaning "village"; the name may also refer to the creek's importance as a trail to Canada in colonial times.[3]

Course

The creek is formed northeast of Powley Place in the Town of Arietta in Hamilton County, where it is created by the confluence of smaller streams. It goes on to form part of the boundary between Herkimer, Fulton, and Montgomery counties. It also flows through the Village of Dolgeville, after passing Dolgeville it enters into Kyser Lake.

Hydrology

One stream gauge is located 1.2 miles (1.9 km) upstream from mouth, and 3.5 miles (5.6 km) northwest of the village of St. Johnsville, at the hamlet of East Creek. It has been in service from December 1945 to March 1995, 1998, 2000, 2003-2014, and July 2014 to current year. The station had a maximum discharge of 31,500 cu ft/s (890 m3/s) and a gauge height of 10.99 feet (3.35 m) on June 28, 2006. It had a minimum discharge of 0.05 cu ft/s (0.0014 m3/s) and a gauge height of 0.47 feet (0.14 m) on July 9, 1978. Outside the period of record in the flood of 1945, there was an estimated discharge of 24,000 cu ft/s (680 m3/s) and gauge height of 9 feet (2.7 m).[4]
