Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge Fence Removal Recap
On June 29 and 30, a group of 15 BHA volunteers and 8 US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) employees removed 3 miles of barbed wire fence from the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge (CMR) in Phillips County, Montana. The fence ran across the middle and southern end of the Rock Creek drainage just east of the Slippery Ann Elk Viewing Area. This is prime elk and mule deer habitat in the iconic Missouri Breaks!
We had a great turnout for the event, including a group of college students all the way from Clemson University in South Carolina. We also had a ton of support from the USFWS and the CMR on this one. They provided the equipment and expertise to get the job done efficiently.
On Saturday night, we enjoyed an assortment of wild game around the campfire. This included fried Missouri River catfish, deer sausage/bison liver jambalaya and feral goat brats from Hawaii. After dinner (and a few beers), one of the BHA volunteers brought out his fiddle and played some old timey tunes in the natural amphitheater of a cut-bank on the Missouri River. It was quite a show!
It was truly inspiring to see this gathering of BHA volunteers and federal employees, and the commitment to wildlife and habitat that we share. I’m not sure that we will be able to reproduce this one, but we will certainly give it shot next year when we continue this important stewardship work. Many thanks to all that participated!

    Looks like trespassing a little bit. Technically they could put up a 15’ high fence that touches their neighbors 15’ high fence and nobody would be able to touch the fence or destroy it? I wonder if anybody else is expected to just give away a piece of their land. I mean nobody would appreciate people walking through or over their backyard. Just depends what side of the fence u r on

  • @wyominguplandoutfitters3665

  • @GregariousAntithesis

    People east if the continental divide are clueless of the value of public lands. They are truly about freedom. Hike into the middle if a wilderness area and you can truly understand how important public land is. I am stuck in this private land hell called Texass now after growing up and spending more than half my life in colorado as well s California. California is more free than texass could ever hope to be because of all the public land.

    Sorry but i see the sincere logic of your brother Matt Rinella. These social media hunt outdoor figures, gear companies, and the non profits are some of the biggest threats to public lands. Its a real money machine and what matters to them most is recruitment to keep the machinen gojng so they can sell you and newcomers more gear, more junk, more profit. Please go on youtube and really listen to Matt Rinella.

    Cool video. I never bother to debone a cottontail. It’s too small to mess with. I just quarter it, leave the bones in and bake or fry it up in the pan like chicken wings. However this plate in the video L@@KED delicious!!! Julia Child would be proud! Personally and for HIGH heat cooking (350*F-475*F), I’ve substituted canola, safflower, sunflower, corn and every other (unhealthy) “vegetable” oil out of the kitchen with “extra light olive oil.” Extra light is a neutral oil used specifically for high heat cooking. Extra light olive oil is more processed than extra virgin. Extra virgin should never be used in cooking temps above 350*F, as it’s the perfect “low heat” ONLY cooking oil. High heat cooking with the extra light allows the food to taste great and it’s better for the “widow maker” artery in one’s heart.
