About this map

Okanogan National Forest dominates this landscape, which transitions from high alpine peaks to the riparian corridor of the Methow River. The river flows through the Methow Valley in the southwest, where the Weeman Bridge serves as a critical crossing point. This area is a patchwork of conservation and resource management, containing portions of the Methow State Wildlife Area and the high-elevation Lake Chelan Virginian Wilderness along Sawtooth Ridge.

Resource extraction history is evident through the Montana Mine and several scattered adits and prospects located near Montana Creek and Lucky Jim Creek. The terrain is defined by significant summits like Rendezvous Mountain, Grizzly Mountain, and Fawn Peak. Numerous seasonal and perennial drainages, including Hancock Creek and a series of numbered creeks from First Creek to Fourth Creek, carve through the complex topography of Boesel Canyon and the surrounding highlands.
