Mess Creek, formerly known as Mestua, is a tributary of the Stikine River in northwestern British Columbia, Canada.[3] It flows north and northwest for about 110 km (68 mi), through a lake and a gorge to join the Stikine River, which in turn flows southwest across the Canada–United States border into Alaska where it empties into various straits of the Inside Passage.[1][4] The northern half of Mess Creek forms a western boundary of Mount Edziza Provincial Park which lies within the traditional territory of the Tahltan people.[5][6]

Mess Creek's watershed covers 2,330 km2 (900 sq mi) and its estimated mean annual discharge is 59.3 m3/s (2,090 cu ft/s).[2] The mouth of Mess Creek is located about 3 km (1.9 mi) southwest of Telegraph Creek, about 73 km (45 mi) west of Iskut and about 94 km (58 mi) southwest of Dease Lake in Cassiar Land District.[3][1] Mess Creek's watershed's land cover is classified as 38.7% conifer forest, 25% barren, 15.9% shrubland, 10% snow/glacier, 8.3% herbaceous and small amounts of other cover.[2]
