Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Reserve

Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Reserve
Creamer’s Field Migratory Waterfowl Reserve is a  birding area near Fairbanks with some easy walking trails.  It covers 1800 acres of wetland, forest, ponds, and open fields.
There are three nature trails, described as “flat and easy” by visitors.     Here are some reviews from Trip Advisor.   To avoid disappointment, it would be wise to call to learn the best times to coincide with the birds’ migration and to check trail conditions.  Laurie Boeck, Refuge Manager, wrote me that “Creamer’s does have an handicapped accessible loop in a typical year, but this year has been an exception with the persistent flooding events (we flooded again on Monday [9/1/14]).  The boreal forest trail is also a relatively easy walking, and while it is not up to ADA standards, it is a flat trail with frequently placed benches for people to rest as they traverse the trail. ”  Call 907-459-7307 for more information.    Here is the website.         Thanks to Ontario artist Terry Best for telling me about it.
