Stikine River Provincial Park contains and protects a geological feature unparalleled in Canada. Nicknamed the 'Grand Canyon' of the north, eighty kilometers of steep-walled canyon, composed of sedimentary and volcanic rock, has been carved through eons of river erosion. In the bottom of this sometimes 300 m deep chasm flows the wild and unnavigable Stikine River, which varies in width from 200 m to as little as 2 m at a point near its confluence with the Tanzilla River. Stikine River Provincial Park also creates a protected corridor between Spatsizi Plateau Wilderness Provincial Park to the east and Mount Edziza Provincial Park to the west.
