This access point is separated from the village of Parryville by Route 248 and a steep hillside.  Both sides of the river are steep, tree-covered slopes.  A trucking company is located adjacent to the canal and river on the inland side of the watered canal.  A Pennsylvania Turnpike overpass crosses the river just north of this access point.  The canal is watered from Lock #11 south of this point to the Lock #13 ruins at the confluence of the Pohopoco Creek, the river, and the old canal.  An aqueduct over the Pohopoco Creek no longer exists.  NEXT ACCESS POINT: 1.2 miles (West Bowmans)
