Hailstone National Wildlife Refuge, Wildlife refuge in Stillwater County, Montana, US
The Hailstone National Wildlife Refuge spans 2,700 acres of wetlands, grasslands, and shrublands in central Montana, providing habitats for numerous species.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt established the refuge through Executive Order 9292 in 1942 as a rest stop and breeding ground for migratory waterfowl.
The refuge serves as an educational center where visitors learn about wildlife conservation through observation of native species in their natural environments.
The refuge, located 5 miles east of Rapelje, offers opportunities for big game hunting, bird watching, and wildlife photography throughout designated areas.
In 2011, administrators removed an earthen dam to restore natural water flow patterns and address environmental concerns about heavy metals accumulation.
