Swaner Preserve and EcoCenter, Sandhill Cranes, and More!

Come visit high-altitude wet meadows, marshes, and riparian areas of the Swaner Preserve in search of Sandhill Cranes.

Description

Come visit high-altitude wet meadows, marshes, and riparian areas of the Swaner Preserve in search of Sandhill Cranes. Cranes have successfully nested and reared their young in the Preserve in years past and are typically very visible during the spring. Surrounded by a scenic backdrop of the Wasatch Mountains, walk along trails normally closed to the public. These high-altitude wetlands and adjacent uplands are home to more than 170 species of birds, including Mountain Bluebirds, Yellow-headed and Red-winged Blackbirds, swallows, various raptors and Yellow Warblers.
