This Waymark is located on The National Key Deer Wildlife Refuge, which was established in 1957 to protect and preserve Key deer and other wildlife resources in the Florida Keys. The refuge consists of approximately 9,200 acres of land that includes pine rockland forests, tropical hardwood hammocks, freshwater wetlands, salt marsh wetlands, and mangrove forests. These natural communities are critical habitat for hundreds of endemic and migratory species including 17 federally-listed species.
This trail will lead you through the Pine Rocklands on No Name Key! Stop by the Refuge Visitor Center on your way to this Waymark for a checkoff list of bird species, and other helpful information like how to identify poisonwood! The Visitor Center is located in the Big Pine Key Winn Dixie Shopping Plaza on Key Deer Blvd, just north of the light on US1. You can also call at (305) 872-0774
