This document is a geographical map illustrating a federal forestry contract opportunity for the Methow Valley Ranger District. The map depicts the "Lookout Units - 1,125 Acres" hand pile burn contract area located in Washington State, encompassing approximately 1,125 acres within the Methow Valley Ranger District. The contract area is divided into 39 numbered burn units (labeled 1-39) shown with orange boundary lines on the map, distributed across the region between the communities of Twisp and surrounding forestlands near Lookout Mountain (elevation 5,485 feet), Block Mountain (4,616 feet), and Buttermilk Butte (5,453 feet). The map identifies key geographical features including the Twisp River, Alder Creek, Poorman Creek, and Black Pine Lake, along with state highways 20 and 423.

The contract requires hand pile burning operations across multiple scattered units in this mountainous terrain. The units are clustered in several geographic concentrations: units 32-39 in the western portion near Black Pine Lake, units 24-31 in the central valley area, and units 1-23 distributed throughout the eastern sections near Lookout Mountain. The work is managed by the U.S. Forest Service Geospatial Technology and Application Center (GTAC) and utilizes USGS, NASA, NGA, FEMA, and USDA-U.S. Forest Service geospatial resources for mapping and planning purposes.
