    MEDICINE LAKE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE NORTHEASTERN MONTANA WETLANDS DISTRICT LAMESTEER NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Medicine Lake, Montana ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1986 U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE SYSTEM REVIEW AND APPROVALS MEDICINE LAKE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE Medicine Lake, Montana ANNUAL NARRATIVE REPORT Calendar Year 1986 Refuge Supervisor Review Date Regional Orffirce Approval Date INTRODUCTION Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge is situated on the glaci­ ated rolling plains in the far northeast corner of Montana. It is located in Sheridan and Roosevelt Counties. This refuge lies in the highly productive prairie pothole region and has relief typical of the glacial drift prairie with relatively gentle rolling plains with occasional shallow depressions. This is basically a prairie refuge located in the transition zone be­ tween the mixed grass and short grass prairie. Native brush species consisting primarily of chokecherry, buffalo berry and snowberry are common in coulees and sandhill areas. A few old shelterbelts still remain on the refuge and these trees appear to be out of place on the prairie, but are composed of a variety of introduced deciduous species. The climate is typical of the northern great plains, with warm summers and cold winters, and marked variations in seasonal pre­ cipitation. Precipitation averages 12 to 15 inches per year. Temperatures can exceed 1000F in the summer and drop to -450F in the winter. Spring is generally the windiest period with veloci­ ties of 20 miles per hour that are associated with passing weather systems. The refuge encompasses 31,457 acres, which includes 13,546 acres of open water and marsh, 14,354 acres of grasslands and 3,557 acres of cultivated lands, primarily former croplands.
