though several miles of
road exist there. It is

The
Lake Chelan
Valley sits in
central
WashingtonState, nestled in the NorthCascadesNational Forest.
The ChelanValley encompasses the communities of
Chelan, Manson & Stehekin. This
pristine, 50.5 mile glacier-fed lake
is 1.5 miles at its widest and 1486
ft. at its deepest point. The
population of the valley consists of
10,000 year-round residents and
several hundred more part-time
residents. Roads extend less than
halfway to the headwaters of
Lake Chelan. Beyond the
end of the road, rugged snowcapped
peaks rise over 7,000 feet from the
lakeshore. Dark evergreens cover the
mountainsides. Deep valleys rise
from the lake to massive glaciers in
the heart of the North Cascades. At
the upper end of Lake Chelan,
limited, local roads do not connect
the communities of Stehekin and HoldenVillage to the outside world.
