Lehigh and Delaware Rivers

By

The WooFDriver has mushed the WooFPAK on much of the Delaware & Lehigh Trail which travels along the Lehigh River. The Lehigh River is a tributary of the Delaware River and is 109 miles long located in eastern Pennsylvania.

The Lehigh river flows through valleys between the Appalachian Mountains. The upper river is characterized by its numerous whitewater rapids and lower river forms the heart of the Lehigh Valley. The Lehigh Valley is a historically important coal and steel producing region of Pennsylvania.

The Delaware River is a major river on the east coast of the United States. Its watershed drains into five states New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware. The Delaware River is named in honor of Thomas West De La Warr, Virginia colony’s first royal governor who defended the colony during the First Anglo-Powhatan War.
