Ouray National Wildlife Refuge Open House

The 23nd annual Open House at Ouray National Wildlife Refuge/Ouray National Fish Hatchery will be held on Saturday, May 13 from 7:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. This free, family-friendly event will give people of all ages the chance to enjoy the scenic beauty of Ouray Refuge and learn about wildlife conservation and other subjects. Visitors will be able to touch animal furs and skulls, observe endangered fish in large tanks, see a live hawk up close, identify birds through a spotting scope, play the Monarch butterfly migration game, make a pine cone bird feeder, spray a fire truck hose, or try throwing an atlatl (an ancient spear-thrower that was used very early in human history).
