Geography
[edit]Pedlar Creek is a left tributary of Arapahoe Creek and joins it 1.1 miles before its mouth in the Nodaway River.[3]
Course
[edit]Pedlar Creek begins in north-central Andrew County about 3 miles west-northwest of Rosendale right alongside US 71. Smith Lake joins Pedlar Creek quite early on the stream's westerly progression. The stream flows in an undulating manner and among large bluffs on its southern side in the second half of its course. It confluences with Arapahoe Creek about 3 miles northwest of Fillmore.
