National Elk Refuge plans sleigh rides

Seasonal sleigh rides at the National Elk Refuge near Jackson start on Mon., Dec. 17 and will continue daily except for Christmas Day. The refuge says the rides offer the public are an exciting way to observe and photograph wildlife on the refuge. Passengers see elk and also often see coyotes, bald eagles, trumpeter swans, ravens, magpies and other wildlife. Participants purchase tickets at the visitor center and then take a shuttle bus to the sleigh boarding area about 3 miles north of Jackson. The sleighs depart three to four times each hour throughout the day, with rides typically lasting an hour.
