Environmental Education and Interpretation
Environmental education and interpretation are a vital part of what we do at Bear River MBR. A variety of tours, programs, and events are offered throughout the year. If you would like to be added to our email list for notice of upcoming public and family programs, please send a request via email to: bearriver@fws.gov. Groups are welcome, but please call the Refuge to make a reservation before your visit.
Field Trips: A great way to teach children with adults about a host of ecological functions, the importance of wetlands, and the diversity of plant and animal life. Currently the refuge does not have the staff to provide activities for all groups that come to the refuge, but there are support materials available for groups at the refuge office. Call (435)723-5887 for more information.
