Melfort Creek
River in Saskatchewan, Canada
Melfort Creek,[1] originally known as Stoney Creek, is a river in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It is in the aspen parkland ecozone[2] and flows through the "most productive farmland areas in Canada, the Carrot River Valley, a territory that has never known drought or severe crop failure".[3] The river begins at Eagle Lake and flows north where it meets the Carrot River in the Rural Municipality of Willow Creek No. 458. The Carrot River is a tributary of the Saskatchewan River within the Nelson River drainage basin.[4] Along Melfort Creek's course are two reservoirs and the city of Melfort.[5]
