White Gull Creek[1] is a river in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. The river's source is White Gull Lake, near the south-western boundary of Narrow Hills Provincial Park[2] and near the southern slopes of the Cub Hills.[3] The river travels through boreal forest[4] and muskeg en route to its mouth at the Torch River. The Torch River is a tributary of the Saskatchewan River as it flows into one of North America's largest inland fresh water deltas, the Saskatchewan River Delta.[5] There are no communities nor settlements along the river.
