A beautiful, easy walk. Just remember... there's not a lot of shade out there. I don't think I'd attempt it in the middle of a hot day.

Great grassland habitat for unique birds and other wildlife. Nice trail system around the fields with bench's and enclosed blinds. Also has a bathroom and observation platform.

Very well maintained wildlife refuge. I went for the first time this year to photograph the short-eared owls. Had some luck the first time, but then had some bad luck on the next visit. Wildlife photography is hit or miss.

I’ve visited this place twice. Was able to see short eared owl🦉 and Northern Harrier. And not to forget, Northern Cardinal a day after icy rain was my best sight of the bird ever!! Ample of parking space, but keep in mind, there is no restrooms at this place. If you’re visiting during winter, there is a town just 4 miles before you enter this locality.
