It is approximately {{convert|1.9|mi|km}} long and flows through Ross Township.[1] The watershed of the stream has an area of {{convert|1.52|sqmi|km2}} and the stream has no named tributaries. The stream is considered by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission to be Class A Wild Trout Waters for brook trout. CourseMitchler Run begins near the base of a mountain in Ross Township. It flows east for several hundred feet before turning south-southwest and entering a valley. After several tenths of a mile, the stream crosses Pennsylvania Route 118 and continues flowing south-southwest. Some distance further downstream, it turns southeast. After several hundred feet, it reaches its confluence with Huntington Creek.[1] Mitchler Run joins Huntington Creek {{convert|23.5|mi|km}} upstream of its mouth.[2] TributariesNo tributaries of Mitchler Run, named or unnamed, are shown on The National Map.[1] However, a 1958 map by the Pennsylvania Fish Commission shows several unnamed tributaries (but no named tributaries) of the stream.[5] Hydrology, geography, and watershedThe concentration of alkalinity in Mitchler Run is 20 milligrams per liter.[3] The elevation near the mouth of Mitchler Run is {{convert|1089|ft|m}} above sea level.[4] The elevation of the stream's source is between {{convert|1400|and|1420|ft|m}} above sea level.[1] The watershed of Mitchler Run has an area of {{convert|1.52|sqmi|km2}}.[2] Mitchler Run is entirely in the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Sweet Valley.[5] The stream is also entirely on land that is private property and closed to the public.[3] HistoryMitchler Run's identifier in the Geographic Names Information System is 1181380. The stream was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979.[5] Mitchler Run has had its name since at least 1958, when it was on a map created by the Pennsylvania Fish Commission.[6] BiologyMitchler Run is considered by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission to be Class A Wild Trout Waters between its headwaters and its mouth. It is inhabited by brook trout.
