Baggs Migration Corridor Fence Modification & Camp Out | June 24-25, 2023
Attendees are invited to arrive and camp at the Grizzly WHMA Game & Fish cabins on Friday, June 24th before working on the fence project the entire day of Saturday, June 25th. There is an optional work morning on Sunday, June 26th before workers disband for the weekend.
This area is in the heart of the Baggs Mule Deer Migration Corridor, and is critical for the survival of pronghorn, elk, and other species as well.
We are expecting folks to camp in the area because the project site can be over an hour’s drive from Rawlins, so lodging opportunities are limited while traveling to and from the site from a larger Wyoming town will make for a very long day on Saturday. There are no facilities at the cabins, other than an outhouse, so be prepared with your own food, water and overnight camping gear. Water, gatorade, and soda will be provided by WWF and Game & Fish along with lunch on Saturday. Don’t forget to come prepared with work gloves, fencing pliers, and clothing to take on the possible weather conditions of June in Wyoming.
Support for this project is provided in part by Rocky Mountain Power & The Laura Jane Musser Fund.

Become a hunting or fishing mentor (Fremont County)
WWF is working with First Hunt Foundation, WGFD, and WCC to show new adult hunters and fishers the ropes. We are setting newbies up with mentors to take them out in the field and help them get their feet under them as they figure things out. You don’t have to be an expert to be a mentor, just have a bit of time, a bit of experience, and a love for the discipline and the resource. Time commitment is up to you, from a few days to a lifetime with a new outdoor friend. First Hunt Foundation provides liability coverage and mentor resources as needed. Reach out to [email protected] for more information.
