CourseRogers Hollow begins in a broad valley next to Mehoopany Mountain and Doll Mountain in Forkston Township. It flows northwest for a short distance before turning north-northwest for a few tenths of a mile. It then turns west-northwest for more than a mile, reaching the end of its valley and crossing Pennsylvania Route 87. The stream then turns west-northwest along the base of Mehoopany Mountain, gradually turning north-northwest over the next few tenths of a mile before reaching its confluence with Mehoopany Creek.[1] Rogers Hollow is approximately {{convert|2.2|mi|km}} long.[1] The stream joins Mehoopany Creek {{convert|4.58|mi|km}} upstream of its mouth.[2] Geography and geologyThe elevation near the mouth of Rogers Hollow is {{convert|712|ft|m}} above sea level, while the elevation near the mouth of the valley is {{convert|728|ft|m}} above sea level.[1][3] The elevation near the creek's source is {{convert|1253|ft|m}} above sea level.[1] The valley of Rogers Hollow is relatively broad for its length. The mountains that border it on three sides form a U-shaped boundary.[4] Watershed and biologyThe watershed of Rogers Hollow has an area of {{convert|2.44|sqmi|km2}}.[2] The stream is entirely within the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Meshoppen.[3] Its mouth is located near Forkston.[2] The entirety of Rogers Hollow is classified as a Coldwater Fishery. It is one of only three named direct tributaries of Mehoopany Creek to have this classification.[5] HistoryThe valley of Rogers Hollow was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979. Its identifier in the Geographic Names Information System is 1185392.[3] The stream does not have a name of its own, but instead takes the name of the valley through which it flows.[3] Appalachia Midstream Services, LLC. has been issued an Erosion and Sediment Control permit for which one of the receiving waterbodies is Rogers Hollow.[6] In 2015 and in 2016, Rogers Hollow served as the downstream boundary for stocking of brook trout and brown trout on Mehoopany Creek.[7][8] See also
