 Chickies Creek runs along the north side of the ridge towards the western end, while Jones Run runs along the south side towards the western end.The name of the creek comes from the Lenape "Chiquesalunga", meaning "place of crayfish".Chickies Hill Road appears to have been the earliest road over the ridge, switchbacking across the middle and making a steep descent down the northern side on the way from Columbia to Marietta.
