It flows through the North Cascades National Park and is a tributary to Lake Chelan. The river is primarily fed by glaciers and snowmelt from the surrounding mountains, with occasional contributions from rainfall. There are no significant dams on the river, but there are several tributaries that contribute to its flow. The river typically experiences high flow in the spring and early summer due to snowmelt, while fall and winter flows are lower. Interestingly, the Stehekin River is known for its remarkable turquoise color, which is the result of glacial sediment suspended in the water.
