Course

The Devils Brook starts at 40°21′22″N 74°29′47″W,[1] near exit 8A on the New Jersey Turnpike. It flows west, following Friendship Road. It then passes through the Plainsboro Preserve, feeding a marsh. It joins with Shallow Brook, its tributary, and crosses Scudders Mill Road, also known as CR-614. It crosses Princeton-Plainsboro Road in a dammed section known as Gordon Pond. It then drains into the Millstone River at 40°19′49″N 74°37′27″W.[1]

Accessibility

The Devils Brook drains a large area in Mercer and Middlesex counties. There are many tributaries that cross roads, so it is easily accessible.

gollark: I made time parsing workthough it has a weird quirkbecause it turns out that general parsing of times is quite a hard problem, so I just had it parse one hardcoded date format, parse time *deltas* using a nice regex, and use some random library for the rest.
