Walkout Creek is a tributary of Raspberry Creek, which in turn is a tributary of Mess Creek, part of the Stikine River watershed in northwest part of the province of British Columbia, Canada.[3] It flows generally west for roughly 12 km (7.5 mi) to join Raspberry Creek about 5 km (3.1 mi) east-southeast of Raspberry Creek's confluence with Mess Creek.[1][3][4] Walkout Creek's watershed covers 80.9 km2 (31.2 sq mi) and its mean annual discharge is estimated at 2.26 m3/s (80 cu ft/s).[2] The mouth of Walkout Creek is located about 44 km (27 mi) southeast of Telegraph Creek, about 38 km (24 mi) southwest of Iskut and about 108 km (67 mi) south-southwest of Dease Lake.[1] Walkout Creek's watershed's land cover is classified as 34.2% barren, 25.1% shrubland, 21.5% herbaceous, 17.7% conifer forest, and small amounts of other cover.[2]
Walkout Creek is in Mount Edziza Provincial Park which lies within the traditional territory of the Tahltan people.[5][6]
