Description
Peterson Prairie Guard Station was built in 1926 as a fire guard station. It's an 18'x24' rustic cabin with one bedroom, small kitchen area, living room with a fireplace/wood insert and propane lighting and heating. The Guard Station sleeps six: There's one double bed in the small bedroom, and two futon couches in the living room that fold down to make double beds. The Guard Station comes supplied with a two-burner cooktop, pots and pans, dishes and utensils. Renters need to provide their own bedding and other linens. The cabin is located seven miles from Trout Lake, Washington, along Forest Road 24. During the snow-free months (typically June-October) you can drive directly to the cabin. The road to the cabin is closed to wheeled vehicles December 1 through April. Cabin renters park their vehicles at the Atkisson Sno*Park and ski, snowshoe or snowmobile an easy 2 1/2 miles to the Guard Station. A Sno*Park permit is required December 1 through April 1 for each parked vehicle. There are many recreational opportunities within close proximity of the Guard Station. Depending on the time of year, hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, and mushroom and huckleberry picking activities are abundant during the snow-free months (typically June through October).The Pacific Crest Trail, Indian Heaven Wilderness, and Mt. Adams Wilderness are all within easy driving distance to enjoy during your visit. Many other trails and points of interest are very close by, too. Atkisson Sno*Park is approximately 2 1/2 miles from the Guard Station and serves as a portal to the Forest's network of 95 miles of groomed snowmobile trails. There are also three signed, ungroomed cross-country ski loops from the Atkisson Sno*Park, offering loop opportunities of 4 to 11 miles. Portions of these loops overlap with each other and the snowmobile trail network. Total net mileage of signed ski trails is 9.7 miles.

Description
Conboy Lake National Wildlife Refuge, one of the hidden jewels of the Refuge System, is located on the east slope of the Cascade Mountains at the base of 12,307-ft. Mount Adams in southern Washington.
It currently encompasses 6,532 acres of the historic Conboy/Camas lakebeds, a shallow marshy wetland area drained by early settlers. Conifer forests, grasslands, shallow wetlands, and deep water provide homes for deer, elk, beaver, coyote, otter, small rodents, and 150 species of birds, as well as numerous amphibians, reptiles, and fish.
Bald eagle, greater sandhill crane, and the Oregon spotted frog are species of concern. Refuge visitors enjoy the scenery, hike the Willard Springs trail, and observe wildlife from the county roads that surround and cross the refuge.
