Redinger Ditch
Redinger Ditch is a creek in northern Indiana that starts near Argos and joins the Tippecanoe River in Talma. Other than those two towns, it is also near Walnut, Tiosa, Tippecanoe, Old Tip Town, Mentone, and Richland Center.〔http://www.anyplaceamerica.com/topography_maps/indiana/ marshall_county/redinger_ditch/10256〕〔Indiana Department of Transportation〕 It is approximately 770 feet above sea level.〔 Its approximate coordinates are .〔(Redinger Ditch, United States - Geographical Names, map, geographic coordinates )〕
==Physical nature==
It begins near Argos in south central Marshall County〔 as a very shallow, narrow stream. As it flows along under Indiana State Road 110, it remains extremely shallow, though it widens slightly. As it reaches the Tippecanoe River, it straightens out some and begins to greatly vary in size. On the upstream side of Fulton County Road 650 North,〔Indiana Department of Natural Resources〕 it is about 7 feet across and 1 foot deep. Just on the other side, it is roughly 12 feet across and 3 feet deep. Just roughly 30 feet downstream from this, there's an island about 4 feet across with about 2 feet of whitewater on either side, and on one side the bank's vertical for about a foot. 10 feet later, it joins the Tippecanoe River.
A number of arrowheads and other such Indian artifacts have been found in and nearby the creek, probably from the Potawatamie tribe.〔Fulton County Historical Society〕 The regular flooding of the creek produces very fertile soil, providing nutrition for a large amount of plants, including water mint, sycamore trees, and stinging nettles, among hundreds of others.
