LeTort Spring Run
The LeTort Spring Run is a 9.4-mile-long (15.1 km)[1] tributary of Conodoguinet Creek in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania in the United States.
Located near Carlisle, its length between Pennsylvania Route 34 and Conodoguinet Creek is a designated Pennsylvania Scenic River.[2] It is a well-known fly fishing stream where anglers fish for brown trout.[3] Located along its banks are LeTort Park, owned by the Borough of Carlisle, and the LeTort Spring Run Nature Trail.
It is named for the French-Canadian fur trader James Le Tort, who built a cabin in the area about 1720.[3]
