Sugar Creek (Western Indiana)

Sugar Creek (Western Indiana)

Sugar Creek is a waterway located in the U.S. state of Indiana. It begins in a marsh just northwest of Thorntown, and travels west-southwest for about 40 miles before merging with the Wabash River 5 miles north of Montezuma. No notably large communities are built along it except for Crawfordsville.

It is most notable for being a major tourist attraction throughout the Midwest because of the effects its formation had on its surrounding terrain, that are most widely seen in Turkey Run State Park.
