Ketchikan Creek (alternate, "Fish Creek"; Tlingit, "Kitschkhin") is a salmon spawning stream[1] on Revillagigedo Island in the U.S. state of Alaska. It heads in a lake and travels through downtown Ketchikan[2]6 miles (9.7 km) to Tongass Narrows.[3] The historic Creek Street in Ketchikan runs along the creek banks as a piling-perched boardwalk.[4]
