[edit] Course

The creek rises in the hills west of the town of Lucas Valley. It descends northward into the San Geronimo Valley and the town of Woodacre, then turns westward and parallels Sir Francis Drake Boulevard through Roy's Redwoods, the towns of San Geronimo, Forest Knolls, and Lagunitas. It then turns southwestward and empties into Lagunitas Creek on the eastern edge of the Samuel P. Taylor State Park.
