This unit follows the 32,000+ acre Lake Chelan, forming its southwestern border, down to the towns of Manson and Chelan. Wenatchee National Forest takes up over three-quarters of the unit. Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness Area in the northwest portion covers approximately one-third of the GMU. Over the past two decades, most of the unit has been affected to some degree by wildfires. The northeast border along the Sawtooth Ridge is all roadless, offering backpack and horseback hunters ample space and one of the areas not affected by past wildfires. Sawtooth Ridge is comprised of a string of mountain peaks ranging from 6,155-ft to over 8,000-ft. The southern tip terminates where the Chelan River meets the Columbia River and is primarily private with blocks of BLM, Wildlife Areas and state ground. Elk are thinly populated, scattered, and hard to find. A grizzly bear recovery zone overlaps this GMU.

This small unit is best bow hunted.
