Rat Creek
Rat Creek is a tributary to the North Saskatchewan River. Rat Creek was once part of a much larger system which formerly almost connected to the Sturgeon River. However, Rat Creek is now defined as a lost creek, due to the city of Edmonton's encroachment on the surrounding area for urban use. Rat Creek was fed by sloughs that occurred north of Edmonton.
== History of Rat Creek ==
Rat Creek was once a large water system, which brought plenty of water downstream into the Saskatchewan River. The creek itself was comparable to that of Mill Creek or Whitemud Creek, and was one of the longest creeks in the north of Edmonton. The North West Mounted Police camped near Rat Creek on their way to establish themselves at Fort Saskatchewan in 1874, and they complained that their horses and wagons were constantly mired in the thick mud and the many sloughs that were present in this area.
