Seedskadee National Wildlife Refuge

Prairie and peregrine falcons, Canada geese, and various species of hawks and owls inhabit this refuge, which stretches more than 25,000 acres. Trumpeter swans also occasionally use the area. Within or near the refuge there are homestead and ranch sites, Oregon Trail crossings, and ferries that cross the Green River, as well as the spot where Jim Bridger and Henry Fraeb built a trading post in 1839. Visitor information and restrooms are available during daylight hours.

Sweetwater County Museum

Learn about the history of southwestern Wyoming in this renovated post office in downtown Green River. Permanent exhibits go in-depth about the Shoshone and Ute tribes who once lived here, as well as the cowboys, explorers, railroad workers, miners, and fur traders who later called the area home. Sweetwater County hosted the first Rocky Mountain Rendezvous in 1825, and several emigrant trails passed through these parts, including the Oregon, California, and Overland.
