North Cascades National Park Complex: Lake Chelan National Recreation Area Overview

The narrow, glacier-carved Stehekin Valley is surrounded by towering mountains. Elevation gradually rises from 1,100 feet at the lake to 5,400 feet at Cascade Pass, about 29 miles away. The Stehekin River, which flows through the valley, is one of three major streams that feed Lake Chelan; the other two, Railroad Creek and Prince Creek, enter down lake outside the Recreation Area. Rainbow Creek plunges 312 feet over Rainbow Falls before joining the Stehekin River 3.5 miles up the valley. Read More
