Mansfield Creek
Mansfield Creek is in the traditional territory of the Tahltan First Nation, of the Tahltan people.
Geography
Mansfield Creek originates on the south flank of the massive Level Mountain shield volcano, about 27 km (17 mi) southeast of Meszah Peak, the highest peak of the Level Mountain Range, a cluster of bare peaks on the summit of Level Mountain. From its source near the large U-shaped valley through which Beatty Creek runs, Mansfield Creek flows generally south then east through wetlands, lakes, and barren lands atop Level Mountain's high lava plateau. From this high plateau Mansfield Creek enters a steep forested canyon carved into the escarpment on Level Mountain's southeastern edge, through which the creek flows east to empty into the Little Tuya River.
