Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.
NDOW-managed 30,040-acre wetland complex ~8 miles southeast of Fallon at the natural terminus of the Carson River — a remnant of prehistoric Lake Lahontan distinct from Stillwater NWR to the north. Irrigated pastures, salt flats, and marsh units support waterfowl and shorebirds; levee roads and three year-round observation decks support birding and wildlife viewing.
