At the center is an illustrated map of the state of Washington, indicating large cities, landmarks and hishways. Black boxes with white numbers are positioned all over the map, corresponding to a list of forest sites down the right side of the poster.

Down the left side are color illustrations - a crude map titled "Mountains To Sound Greenway" at the top, a tall tree and close up images of two distinct tree trunks meant to aid in determining the age of a tree without cutting it down at the center, and another crude map titled "Tale A Trip To Mr. St. Helens / And Visit A Forest Reborn" at the bottom. Across the bottom of the poster are computer simulated images of how forests may appear after harvesting. At the bottom right is a map legend. Poster verso has a color image of forest creatures gathered by a pond with "The Signs Of A / Healthy Forest Are / All Around You" at the top in black. Below the image is a black bar with white text listing typical forest animals and some of their traits. At the top left is a Managing Forests Exploration Map front cover. At the top right, down the right side and across the bottom are sections of black text with associated images, all relating to forest regions and characteristics.
