Fort Peck Wildlife Station is a field unit in
Charles M. Russell Nat. Wildlife Refuge. The entire refuge is about 1.2 million acres of
Missouri River breaks habitat extending from Fort Peck Dam upstream to above the Fred Robinson Bridge south of
Malta. The refuge is a natural setting with mostly unimproved roads and no modern campgrounds. However, the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers maintains some improved camping facilities around
Fort Peck Reservoir. Roads are rough and travel by street-type automobile is impossible. Four-wheel drive vehicles are recommended. Winter weather is severe.
