Chuck Creek Watershed

Chuck Creek is an ancestral water source for people that lived in the Warm Chuck Inlet. This area is one of the wetter climates of our country with an average annual precipitation of 138”. Chuck Creek is an outlet that flows from Chuck Lake.

The watershed that supports Chuck Lake is a system of streams and a chain of smaller lakes. The lake’s west side has a few ponds and marsh areas that feed into it. The headwaters start with Jay Lake, then Island Lake, into Hook Lake. Marsh Lake is surrounded by marsh and feeds into Hook Lake. Hook Lake then feeds into Crooked Lake, then finally Chuck Lake. -Google Earth
