Located in the foothills of the Continental Divide, in the extreme southwest portion of Montana near the Montana-Idaho border, is the small mountain community of Lakeview. Lakeview is surrounded by the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest and Red Rocks Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The Red Rock Lake National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1935 to protect trumpeter swan. Today, the Refuge continues to be one of the most important habitats in North America for these majestic birds.
