There are several routes available to reach the Refuge Headquarters, depending on your direction of travel and local weather conditions. Craig, CO: Drive 31 miles west on Hwy 40 and turn right on Hwy 318 after passing through Maybell, CO. Follow Hwy 318 for 60 miles to the Refuge Headquarters. Vernal, UT: There are two possible routes depending on the season and weather conditions. The most reliable route is 81 miles total and involves following Hwy 191 around the Flaming Gorge. From Vernal, drive 52 miles north on Hwy 191 and turn right on the Browns Park Road just inside Wyoming. Follow this road for approximately 28 miles until you see the Refuge Headquarters 1 mile east of the Colorado-Utah border. This route includes 3 miles of gravel road. During good summer weather an alternative route is to drive 50 miles over Diamond Mountain (this requires a 4×4 high-clearance vehicle). Turn east on 500 N St. and follow it approximately 26 miles, during which the name changes to the Jones Hole Road. After 26 miles, turn left on Browns Park Road 1250 and follow it approximately 17 miles to the Swinging Bridge. Drive over the bridge and follow CO-83 north to Hwy 318. Turn left on Hwy 318 to reach the Refuge Headquarters just down the hill. Much of this route is gravel and dirt roads. Please note that the Swinging Bridge is 8' wide and not all trailers will fit between the bollards. Rock Springs, WY: There are two possible routes depending on the season and weather conditions.
