Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge and
Seedskadee NWR

Located on the Green River in Sweetwater County. And near the junction of state hwys 372 & 28.

This National Wildlife Refuge contains a variety of habitats and a corresponding great diversity of wildlife. The Refuge's cottonwood/willow woodlands provide important habitat for migrating and resident song birds. Over 200 species of birds have been observed on the Refuge. Canada geese and a variety of ducks have nested along the river for centuries. During the summer, sage grouse flocks can be seen making their way to the river for water.

The first recorded humans in this area arrived as the great continental ice sheets were receding to the north. The Shoshone Indians spread into this area around 700 years ago. In 1811, a party of fur traders representing John Jacob Astor's Pacific Fur Company were the first, documented euroamerican visitors to the Green River basin.
