Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge Complex

TRAIL CLOSURE:

The Beaverdam Boardwalk sustained damage due to two large trees that fell during the storms on Monday, June 1. For your safety, the trail will be closed until work crews are able to remove the trees and make repairs to the boardwalk. The trail could be closed for several weeks.

Happy National Volunteer Week 2026! Thank you to all the many people who have volunteered to help the refuge in different ways during the past year, both at our Visitor Center and elsewhere. Photos can't accurately capture the work accomplished by all our volunteers, but we're grateful for each of you!
