About the little schuylkill river
The Little Schuylkill River is a 25-mile-long tributary of the Schuylkill River in Pennsylvania. It was originally used for transportation of coal and timber during the 1800s, but it is now primarily used for recreational purposes such as fishing, boating, and hiking. The river runs through several small towns, including Tamaqua and New Ringgold. The Little Schuylkill River is fed by several creeks and streams, with its headwaters located in the mountains of Schuylkill County. The river is now regulated by several dams, including the Tuscarora Dam and Reservoir, which is used for drinking water and recreation. In addition to recreational uses, the river is also used for agricultural purposes, with several farms located along its banks.
