2017 Map of Stehekin

About this map

The Stehekin River flows southeast through a narrow valley before emptying into the northern tip of Lake Chelan, a landscape defined by the convergence of the Lake Chelan National Recreation Area and the Wenatchee National Forest. This 2017 survey details the remote settlement of Stehekin, situated near Purple Point, and the upstream enclave of McGregor Meadows. Access is anchored by the Stehekin State Airport and the Stehekin Valley Rd, the primary corridor linking the valley's scattered private land blocks. Notable landmarks such as Rainbow Falls and the Painted Rocks along the shoreline illustrate the geographic character of this roadless-access community. High-elevation features like Rainbow Mtn and the Fourth of July Basin dominate the surrounding terrain, while various drainage systems including Devore Creek and Company Creek feed into the central river system.
