Basin features
River system Great Lakes Basin

Percy Creek is a small waterway, or stream, located in the western part of Sudbury District in Ontario, Canada. It's part of the huge Great Lakes Basin, which means its water eventually flows into the Great Lakes. Percy Creek is a branch, or tributary, that flows into the Batchawana River.

Journey of Percy Creek

Where it Starts

Percy Creek begins its journey in an unnamed lake. This lake is found in a place called Moggy Township. From there, the creek starts flowing towards the southwest.

Flowing to Percy Lake

As it continues, Percy Creek reaches the northeast side of Percy Lake. It then flows out of the lake from its western side. The creek keeps moving in a southwest direction.

Reaching the Batchawana River

Percy Creek then enters another area known as Moen Township. Finally, it reaches its end, or mouth, where it joins the larger Batchawana River. The water from the Batchawana River eventually makes its way to Lake Superior.
