It forms the east-central side of Mess Creek valley and consists of two segments separated about 5 kilometres by Walkout Creek valley. The northern segment extends about 8 km (5.0 mi) southeast along the southwestern side of the Big Raven Plateau, whereas the southern segment extends generally south along the northwestern, western and southwestern edges of the Kitsu Plateau for about 10 km (6.2 mi). With an elevation of more than 1,700 metres, the Mess Creek Escarpment rises more than 910 m (3,000 ft) above the floor of Mess Creek valley. The escarpment lies within the boundaries of Mount Edziza Provincial Park.
