Inscription.
On December 28, 2006 the O.D.N.R. designated 32 miles of the Mohican River from Pleasant Hill Dam to its confluence with the Kokosing River at Walhonding Ohio's 13th scenic river.

The 5-mile Clear Fork has gradient of 11 ft/mile; the 28-mile main trunk, 8 feet.

It drains a watershed of 1,000 square miles.

This designation, together with that of the Wally Road's Road's Scenic Byway designation, makes Kenhurst Valley Ohio's only parcel of land so honored.
