Arrowleaf Balsam Root2.National Bison Range..

Darn it, I thought as we approached the turn off to Moise and noticed snow on the mountains of the National Bison Range. I had a hunch that the Red Sleep Drive would be closed, but it wasn’t confirmed until we arrived at the visitor’s center where a ranger told us that 3 inches of […]

May in Review – Community Garden, Bison Range, and Black Powder Shoot

Garden, Bison Range, Avalanche Lake

When I first looked at the month of May, I thought it rather uneventful. On second look, I realized just how special it was. We started preparing our plot at the Community Garden and planted some tomato plants, even though I thought it still a bit too early. A late spring snowfall blanketed the garden […]

The Red Sleep Drive

May 15, 2013August 14, 2013 Marlene Leave a comment Glacier Country, Life is an Adventure, Wildlife

The Red Sleep Drive of the National Bison Range opened May 11th, the Saturday before Mother’s Day. As a rule, we visit the range in May and this year was no exception. After spending approximately an hour at the Ninepipes Museum in Pablo, where we learned about the history of the area, we arrived at […]

Take Your Time at the National Bison Range

June 12, 2012March 31, 2014 Marlene 1 Comment Glacier Country, Life is an Adventure, Wildlife

Although I knew the views would be lovely and the Mission’s spectacular, the thought of our annual drive to Moise and the hours and hours of driving around the National Bison Range didn’t thrill me. I hated to think that I was getting cynical about this national treasure, but then I realized it wasn’t the […]

7th Time to the National Bison Range

May 18, 2011May 15, 2013 Marlene Leave a comment Geocaching, Glacier Country, Life is an Adventure, Wildlife

For the 7th spring in a row, the National Bison Range wowed us with its wildlife and scenery. The drive south on Hwy. 93 along Flathead Lake was stunning. The weather was perfect and we stopped to find a few geocaches along the route. The caches were fun and unique and aren’t likely to fade from […]

Close Encounters of the Buffalo Kind

Before I rattle on about our trip to the zoo (Montana style), I would like to thank Blogger for honoring me with Blog of Note yesterday. I was at Costco all morning having my winter studded tires changed over to my summer ones. When I returned, I checked my email and found that Angie had […]

Ticks, Elk, Buffalo and More!

August 9, 2007January 17, 2017 M and E Leave a comment Life is an Adventure, M & E's Excellent Adventures, Wildlife

Opening Day at the National Bison Range After a long winter and waiting for the snow to melt, it was finally opening day of the Red Sleep Mountain Drive at the National Bison Range. After driving past the cerulean waters of Flathead Lake, the largest natural, freshwater lake West of the Mississippi River, we headed […]
