footnotes =Lynch Creek is a
stream inSonoma County, California ,United States which discharges into thePetaluma River .Course
Lynch Creek rises on the west flank of
Sonoma Mountain and descends initially to the west. It flows under Sonoma Mountain Road, then turns southward and roughly parallels Lynch Road for about a mile (2 km). Just north of Adobe Road, it crosses under Sonoma Mountain Road again. After crossing Adobe Road, it flows through Rooster Run Golf Club and enters suburban Petaluma, where it flows southwestward. It crosses Sonoma Mountain Parkway and Maria Drive and follows the western edge of Lucchesi Park to North McDowell Boulevard. From the south side of the Boulevard, it continues southward, passing underU.S. 101 at milepost 5.19 to feed into the Petaluma River near Jess Avenue.Bridges
