National Bison Range Complex includes the Lost Trail, Ninepipe, Pablo and the Swan River National Wildlife Refuges as well as the Northwest Montana Wetland Management District. All of the refuges and associated lands are managed from the National Bison Range by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, an agency under the US Department of the Interior. The refuges are located in the northwestern regions of the U.S. state of Montana. The Ninepipe, Swan and Pablo National Wildlife Refuges are not permanently staffed, however, the other three areas have both interpretive visitor centers and naturalists. The National Bison Range is located approximately one hour north of Missoula, Montana and directional signs from U.S. Highway 93 guide visitors to Moiese, Montana, and the complex headquarters.

“Disney World has acquired by now something of the air of a national shrine. American parents who don’t take their children there sense obscurely that they have failed in some fundamental way, like Muslims who never made it to Mecca.”

“but we wish the river had another shore,
some further range of delectable mountains,”
—Robert Lowell (1917–1977)
“The human mind is so complex and things are so tangled up with each other that, to explain a blade of straw, one would have to take to pieces an entire universe.... A definition is a sack of flour compressed into a thimble.”
