WHEELER NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE – Day 1.
Day 66 – At 6:30 this morning it was 41 degrees and sunny. We left for the NWR after driving through the campground to check everything out. There are 3 large loops of campsites; a few are near Lake Wheeler, all of them are in the woods and all but four sites have full hook-ups (water, electric, & sewer). The Refuge was about 45 minutes from the campground. We first drove to the Visitor’s Center. It turned out that it’s closed on Sunday & Monday. There was a gate closed & we couldn’t get in.
