Talk:Stuck River (Washington)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If I read this correctly, the Stuck River is now completely part of the White river? Perhaps we should merge the two articles? --Measure 00:47, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes the entire Stuck is now the White River's last reach before joining the Puyallup River. On lots of maps the words "Stuck River" are still printed along the White River in this reach. It does seem as if the info on the Stuck River could easily just be part of the White River page. Pfly 01:34, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stuck still legally distinct in some ways

The White has taken over the course of the Stuck, but the Stuck is still referenced in place names and legal descriptions, so it might still deserve its own article, however brief. Many popular maps still call the river the White River north of the county line and the Stuck River south of the county line, e.g. Thomas Guide maps, and King County still uses Stuck River in the name of one of the flood control levies on the southern White River.
