Passage Creek

Passage Creek

Passage Creek is a tributary stream of the North Fork Shenandoah River in Fort Valley, Virginia. It flows through two spine-like Massannutten Mountains in a narrow gorge, mostly through US Forestry Service protected land [ [http://www.potomac.org/site/priorities/ Potomac Conservancy] ] . It is a popular fishing spot because it is stocked with trout [ [http://www.dgif.virginia.gov/fishing/regulations/trout.asp Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries] ] . It runs along Fort Valley Road, and is accessible at the Elizabeth Furnace recreation area [ [http://www.fs.fed.us/r8/gwj/lee/recreation/camping/elizabeth_furnace.shtml US Forest Service - Elizabeth Furnace recreation area page] ]
