Review:
The National Elk Refuge consists of almost 25,000 acres of intermountain valley featuring grassy meadows, rolling hills, and marshes in the Jackson Hole area of Northwestern Wyoming.
The refuge also has several acres of forested areas with stunning Douglas firs, aspen, and Lodgepole Pine along the picturesque Gros Ventre River.
The varied wilderness offers excellent habitats for animals native to the area like the nationally significant Jackson Elk herd, various endangered species, several big game animals, birds, and fish.
Bald Eagles, Trumpeter Swans, bison, and wolves are just a few of the other animals the National Elk Refuge provides for and preserves.
