Boyer Chute NWR preserves oxbow wetlands, meandering channels, cottonwoods and prairie — excellent for wetland, bird and landscape shots. Best at dawn/dusk for soft light, reflections and active waterfowl; spring and fall migration are prime. Trails and boardwalks provide access; gravel parking at the visitor lot. No fee; respect nesting areas and seasonal closures. Mosquitoes can be heavy in summer; bring waterproof boots for muddy edges.
