The Delaware Water Gap from the Appalachian Trail (I-80 on the left) The Delaware Water Gap is a water gap on the border of the U.S. states of New Jersey and Pennsylvania where the Delaware River cuts through a large ridge of the Appalachian Mountains.
The Delaware River is less than 300 yards (268m) wide at the point where Washingtonâs army crossed. Col. Henry Knox was given command of the river crossing operation. It took the American army roughly 4 hours to march from the river crossing site to the outskirts of Trenton.
