Weather Stehekin Valley ordered to evacuate as more rain is on the way Dec. 13, 2025 at 11:56 am Fast-moving flood waters carry silt and debris down the mountainsides and into the northern stretches of Lake Chelan near Stehekin in mid-December after an atmospheric river dumped inches of rain onto the region. (Chelan County Sheriff Mike Morrison) By Taylor Blatchford Seattle Times staff reporter The Chelan County sheriff’s office has issued an evacuation order for the Stehekin Valley ahead of heavy rain expected on Monday. The agency recommends that people who can access Purple Point take the 1:30 p.m. ferry on Saturday or Sunday. “Slide areas may slide again, and creeks and drainages are expected to rise,” Chelan County Emergency Management wrote in a Facebook post Saturday. The remote town on the north shore of Lake Chelan is reeling after devastating floodwaters rushed down the fire-scarred mountainsides surrounding it. Much of the flooding poured down over burn scars from last year’s Pioneer fire or older burn scars in the area. “Stehekin is an absolute mess,” Chelan County Sheriff Mike Morrison told The Seattle Times on Friday. “It’s staggering, the damage we’re seeing.” The National Weather Service forecast for Stehekin projects rain that will begin around 4 a.m. Sunday. On Sunday, less than 0.1 of an inch of rain is expected. On Monday, though, much more rain is expected: between 1 and 2 inches. Monday night, the rain may turn to snow. Both rain and snow are projected to continue throughout the week.

There is no road access to Stehekin. Surrounded by very mountainous terrain. I've been there many times over the years. It can only be accessed by boat or floatplane. Eric
