It rises at an elevation of Шаблон:Convert and meets its confluence with Cooks Creek at an elevation of Шаблон:Convert. The length of the stream is Шаблон:Convert, and has an average slope of 190 feet per mile (35.9 meters per kilometer).[1]

Course

Hollow Run rises on the eastern slope of Buckwampum Hill oriented north for a short distance. It then turns to the northeast then curves back around to the north. At river mile 1.43 it receives a tributary from the left and abruptly turns again to the northeast.

At river mile 1.25 it passes through a pond or dammed reservoir. Shortly after it leaves the pond, it picks up a tributary from the right at river mile 1.05, then flows generally north to its confluence at Cooks Creek's 2.42 river mile.[2]

Geology

Buckwampum Hill is part of the Quartz Fanglomerate formation, from the Jurassic and Triassic, which is a coarse conglomerate of rounded cobbles and boulders. Mineralogy consists of quartzite, sandstone, quartz, and metarhyolite in red sand.

As Hollow Run flows northward, it then runs into a Hornblende and Gneiss formation, from the Precambrian, which also consists of labradorite.

As it approaches Cooks Creek it flows into the Hardyston Formation, from the Cambrian period, consisting of quartzite and feldpathic sandstone and has some quartz pebble conglomerate and is somewhat porous and limonitic.[3]
