Here, it receives an unnamed tributary from the right and turns southeast. A short distance further downstream, the stream leaves its valley and turns east, crossing Pennsylvania Route 104 and then US Route 11/US Route 15 before reaching its confluence with the Susquehanna River.[1] Boyers Run joins the Susquehanna River {{convert|104.99|mi|km}} upriver of its mouth.[2] Hydrology, geography and geologyThe elevation near the mouth of Boyers Run is {{convert|387|ft|m}} above sea level.[3] The elevation of the stream's source is {{convert|736|ft|m}}.[1] Boyers Run is located to the south of Turkey Ridge.[4] Boyers Run is not designated as an impaired waterbody.[5] Watershed and biologyThe watershed of Boyers run has an area of {{convert|1.63|sqmi|km2}}.[2] The stream is entirely within the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Millersburg.[3] Its mouth is located near Liverpool.[2] The drainage basin of Boyers Run is designated as a Warmwater Fishery and a Migratory Fishery.[6] HistoryBoyers Run was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979.
