Established in 1965, the refuge encompasses more than 26,000 acres along the river between Fontenelle Dam and Green River. In addition to providing an opportunity for excellent bird watching, Seedskadee offers world-class trout fishing along with waterfowl, upland bird and big-game hunting. Native bird species making the refuge home are prairie falcon, peregrine falcon, owls, hawks and Canadian geese. Bald and golden eagles also inhabit the area. Public roads or refuge tour routes provide access to much of the refuge. Except for a small area around the headquarters building, the entire refuge is open for walking, with fence walkover structures positioned at some of the more popular spots. Historic sites related to early ranching and several crossings of the Oregon, Mormon Pioneer, Pony Express and California National Historic Trails can be found within Seedskadee's boundaries.
