Small parking and trailhead for Carlos Avery Wildlife Management Area’s north loop — prime for wetland and marsh compositions, migratory and breeding waterfowl, and open-sky landscapes. Visit at dawn or dusk for active birds and golden light; spring and fall migrations and winter snow offer distinct moods. Easy roadside parking and short walks to viewpoints; public WMA (no fee) but follow posted hunting and seasonal access rules. Expect mosquitoes in summer; pack insect repellent and waterproofs
