Elk Creek (West Virginia) Elk Creek is a tributary of the West Fork River, 29 mi long, in north-central West Virginia in the United States. Via the West Fork, Monongahela and Ohio Rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 121 sqmi on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau.
