Via the West Fork, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of {{convert|126|sqmi|km2}}[4] on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. Tenmile Creek and its watershed are located entirely in western and northern Harrison County. It rises in the southwestern part of the county, approximately {{convert|8|mi|km}} west of West Milford, and flows northwardly and northeastwardly to the town of Lumberport, where it joins the West Fork River from the southwest.[5] Its tributaries include Salem Fork,[6] which drains the city of Salem; and Little Tenmile Creek,[7] {{convert|13|mi|km}} long,[3] which flows southeastwardly through northwestern Harrison County and the small communities of Wallace, Brown, Dola, and Rosebud.[5] According to the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, approximately 81% of Tenmile Creek's watershed is forested, mostly deciduous. Approximately 13% is used for pasture and agriculture, and less than 1% is urban.[4] According to the Geographic Names Information System, Tenmile Creek has also been known historically as Coal Bank Creek.[1] See also
