The Refuge consists of 1,116 acres on three separate parcels of land interspersed with private and state land. Bamforth Lake, located a the bottom of a basin, is mostly state owned with approximately 100 acres of the total 550-acre lake bottom acres under Refuge control.

| The two main habitats of the Refuge are greasewood/grassland upland and alkali flats and marsh and water areas. A variety of migratory birds use the Refuge wetlands, including American white pelicans, California gulls, double-crested cormorants, black-crowned night herons, American avocets, and snowy egrets. Many songbirds can be observed in the greasewood/grassland areas including western meadowlarks, vesper sparrows, horned larks, brown-headed cowbirds, and Brewer's sparrows. |
