About this map

Okanogan National Forest dominates this section of the Methow Valley highlands at the dawn of the 21st century. The terrain is defined by high drainage basins, with Pearrygin Creek and its namesake Pearrygin Peak serving as central landmarks. A network of high-elevation lookouts and ridges, including the First Butte Lookout and Blue Buck Ridge, provides a view of the intricate waterway system where Ramsey Creek and the various forks of Boulder Creek carve through the landscape.

Evidence of resource management and conservation is visible in the overlap of the Methow State Wildlife Area along the western edge and scattered industrial markers like the Gravel Pit near the southern boundary. This map captures the region's character as a managed wilderness area before the shifting forest policies and environmental changes of the subsequent decades, recording the exact placement of summits like Tripod Peak and Ramsey Peak.
