Kinder Crossing on the creek derived its name from Runyon C. Kinder, who herded sheep in the area during the 1880s.[1] The crossing lends its name to Kinder Crossing Trail, a hiking route along the creek.[2] Other crossings with trails include Horse Crossing,[3] Jones Crossing and Mack Crossing.[4]
