The Rogue River has a length of 143 km. It arises in the Rogue Range , a mountain range in the Hess Mountains , at the lower end of a glacier at an altitude of about 1600 m . Initially it flows north. On the upper reaches is the 2.5 km long Arrowhead Lake . At river kilometer 106 the Marmot Creek flows from the north into the Rogue River. This turns to the west. At river kilometers 86 and 80 respectively, the Einarson Creek from the right and the Old Cabin Creek from the left meet the Rogue River. This turns gradually to the southwest and finally to the south, before it flows into the Hess River, 120 km above its mouth in the Stewart River .
