Sugar Creek (South Grand River tributary)

Sugar Creek is a stream in Cass County in the U.S. state of Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of the South Grand River.

The stream headwaters arise at 38°36′14″N 94°15′10″W[1] approximately six miles southeast of Harrisonville and 1.5 miles east of the community of Daugherty. The stream crosses under Missouri Route 7 two miles southeast of Daugherty and flows generally south for approximately ten miles to its confluence with the South Grand River at the southern border of Cass County.[2] The confluence is just west of the Settles Ford Conservation Area at 38°27′13″N 94°12′36″W and an elevation of 761 feet.[1]

Sugar Creek was named for the sugar maple trees lining its course.[3]
