Lage Der Quartz Lake befindet sich am Westhang der Livingston Range, ein Gebirgszug der Rocky Mountains. Der 1347 m hoch gelegene See wird vom Quartz Creek in westlicher Richtung durchflossen. Direkt unterhalb des Quartz Lake befindet sich der 19 ha große „Middle Quartz Lake“. Weiter talabwärts gibt es noch den 67 ha großen Lower Quartz Lake. Der Quartz Lake befindet sich 50 km nördlich von Columbia Falls, MT. Zur kanadischen Grenze im Norden sind es 19 km. Der Quartz Lake ist 6,3 km lang und bis zu 780 m breit. Der Quartz Lake befindet sich unterhalb der Südflanke der 2467 m hohen Cerulean Ridge. Südöstlich und östlich des Sees erheben sich der 2611 m hohe Logging Mountain und der 2938 m hohe Vulture Peak. Am westlichen Seeende befindet sich ein einfacher Zeltplatz, der „Quartz Lake Campground“. Dieser ist über eine staubige, ungeteerte Zugangsstraße, der „Inside North Fork Road“, erreichbar. Eine ein- oder zweitägige Rundwanderstrecke („Quartz Lake Loop Trail“, 20,5 km, 450 Höhenmeter) beginnt am Bowman Lake-Parkplatz und führt am Quartz Lake vorbei. Seefauna Im Glacier-Nationalpark lief 2019 ein Programm zum Schutz heimischer Fische. Dieses Projekt ergänzte die laufenden Bemühungen in Zusammenarbeit mit dem U.S. Geological Survey zur Wiederansiedlung der Stierforelle im Quartz Lake und im benachbarten Logging Lake.

Rainbow Dam

Rainbow Dam is a hydroelectric dam on the Missouri River, 29 feet (8.8 m) high and 1,055 feet (322 m) long, located six miles northeast of Great Falls in the U.S. state of Montana. History The dam is named for the downstream Rainbow Falls, a 45 ft (14 m) waterfall that is the third of the five Great Falls of the Missouri. Built in 1910, the dam furnishes water to an eight-unit hydroelectric plant with a capacity of 36 megawatts. As the dam's power plant is located over a half-mile downstream, the flow of water over Rainbow Falls and downstream Crooked Falls is significantly reduced during the dry season. The water from the penstocks re-enters the river a few hundred yards east of Crooked Falls. Montana Power Company acquired the dam when it was founded in 1912, PPL Corporation purchased it in 1997 and sold it to NorthWestern Corporation in 2014.

ГЕС Рейнбоу

ГЕС Рейнбоу — гідроелектростанція у штаті Монтана (Сполучені Штати Америки). Знаходячись між ГЕС Блек-Ігл (21 МВт, вище по течії) та ГЕС Cochrane, входить до складу каскаду на річці Міссурі, найбільшій правій притоці Міссісіпі (басейн Мексиканської затоки). На початку 20 століття річку перед водоспадом Rainbow Falls (висота падіння 14 метрів) перекрили бетонною греблею висотою 9 (за іншими даними — 13) метрів та довжиною 322 (за іншими даними — 349) метрів. Вона утримує водосховище з площею поверхні 0,5 км2 та об'ємом 1,5 млн м3 (корисний об'єм 1,4 млн м3), в якому припустиме коливання рівня у операційному режимі між позначками 979 та 983 метрів НРМ. Зі сховища по лівобережжю проклали три водоводи довжиною біля 0,8 км, два з яких завершувались у вирівнювальному басейні розмірами 105х55 метрів, який через водозабірну структуру живив шість встановлених у 1910 році турбін. Ще один сполучався з надземним вирівнювальним резервуаром висотою 20 метрів та діаметром 12 метрів та подавав ресурс для запущених в 1917-му ще двох гідроагрегатів. Ця станція загальною потужністю 35 МВт відпрацювала понад сотню років та була в 2013-му замінена новою. При цьому по лівобережжю проклали підвідний канал довжиною 0,8 км, який подає воду для однієї турбіни типу Каплан потужністю 59 МВт. Відпрацьована вода повертається у річку по відвідному каналу довжиною 0,2 км. Примітки
Rainbow Glacier

Rainbow Glacier is in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacier is situated immediately to the east of Rainbow Peak at an elevation between 8,500 feet (2,600 m) and 8,000 feet (2,400 m) above sea level. The glacier covers an area of approximately 287 acres (1.16 km2) and has visible crevasses in satellite imagery. Rainbow Glacier has shown modest retreat compared to other glaciers in Glacier National Park, and lost just over 9 percent of its surface area between 1966 and 2005.

Rankin Ranch

The Rankin Ranch is a historic ranch off Montana Highway 284, north of Townsend in rural Broadwater County, Montana. A National Historic Landmark, it was a longtime summer residence of Jeannette Rankin (1880-1973), whose 1916 election to the United States House of Representatives made her the first woman elected to the House. Her legacy includes a penchant for pacifism, women's rights, and social reform. She served another term from 1941 to 1943 when she was the only member of the House to oppose the declaration of war against Japan in 1941. A small portion of the ranch was designated a National Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. Description and history The Rankin Ranch is located on the southwestern flank of the Big Belt Mountains, between Montana Highway 284 and Helena National Forest. The ranch consists of about 14,000 acres (57 km2) of land, most of which is open prairie. The ranch complex is located on Avalanche Gulch Road, a county road providing access to the national forest, just southwest of the national forest boundary, and is screened by a number of trees. The main house is a modest single-story clapboarded frame structure. The front facade, facing roughly west, is set behind a recessed porch supported by fieldstone posts. The interior, of the house, and the accompanying ranch outbuildings, are not architecturally distinguished. The ranch house is believed to have been built in 1923 by Dan Flouree, the same year the initial 2,000-acre (810 ha) parcel of the ranch was purchased by Wellington Rankin, brother of Jeannette Rankin. This ranch became the regular summer home for Jeanette from then until 1956. Of all of the places she lived, it is the place where she spent the most of her time during the height of her political influence. Elected in 1916 to the United States House of Representatives, she was the first woman elected to Congress. She was a strong pacificist, opposing American entry into both World War I and World War II; in 1941, she was the only member of Congress to oppose the war declaration after the December Attack on Pearl Harbor. She was a supporter of socially progressive legislation, working to secure women's suffrage. An area of 90 acres (36 ha) surrounding the homestead was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976, in recognition of Rankin's historic role.

Red Eagle Glacier

Red Eagle Glacier is a glacier remnant (glacieret) in Glacier National Park in the U.S. state of Montana. The glacieret is a hanging glacier located on the north slope of Clyde Peak, and to the southeast of Mount Logan and Logan Glacier. Between 1966 and 2005, Red Eagle Glacier lost 53 percent of its surface area and now covers less than 25 acres (0.10 km2) which is below the threshold to qualify as an active glacier. Comparing images of the glacier taken in 1914 with those from 2009, indicates that the glacier has experienced extensive retreat.

Red Lodge High School

Red Lodge High School is a high school that serves several towns in Carbon County, Montana, including Red Lodge, Luther, and Washoe. Approximately 200 students attend the school. Red Lodge High School is located near the northern end of Red Lodge, adjacent to the sports fields and Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary. Construction The first Red Lodge High School was built in 1962, however in April 2009 the students moved across town into a brand new high school. Construction began in June 2008. With Collaborative Design Architects creating the design and Hardy Construction building, the architecture prides itself to be environmentally friendly and cost $7.3 million. Some of the features of the design are two computer labs, two science labs, and a spacious common area with a fireplace. In 2010, a full size tournament-size gymnasium (22,000-square-feet) that seats up to 2,300 people was finished. The gymnasium cost approximately $2.4 million to build. $1 million was received from the Montana Department of Commerce Quality Schools Project Grant. The gym allows the town to host regional tournaments, which in turn brings more business to Red Lodge. The community felt the need for a new high school because middle school students were forced to walk four blocks to access lunch and gym facilities, which meant that some students were walking back and forth between schools up to four times a day. The main concern was the safety of the students regarding both traffic and extreme weather conditions. After examining various options, the Red Lodge school board decided the best option would be to build a new high school, and migrate the middle school into the old high school. $2.2 million worth of renovations were executed on the old high school to update the building for a safer school environment. Mascot change In 2011, Red Lodge High School’s mascot officially changed from the Redskins to the Rams. In previous years, discrepancies about the term Redskins being a derogatory term towards Native Americans had been heavily scrutinized. However, Red Lodge High School alumni had pride in the Redskin mascot, it had been the mascot for over 50 years. But, in 2010 after many discussions in the school, community and county amongst many individuals, including Native Americans, the decision to change the mascot was made. All Red Lodge students were able to suggest new mascots, and after the school board narrowed it down to three choices, the students voted on their favorite.

Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge

Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge is a remote refuge located in the high elevation of the Centennial Valley, in the southwestern region of the U.S. state of Montana. Adjacent to Gallatin National Forest and near Yellowstone National Park, the refuge is an integral part of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. Red Rock Lakes is best known for being the primary location for the efforts saving the trumpeter swan from extinction, which by 1932 had fewer than 200 known specimens in the United States and Canada. By the year 2002, an estimated 3,000 trumpeters were wintering on the refuge, many having migrated south from their summer range in Canada. The trumpeters are now so plentiful that efforts are being undertaken to help them reestablish historical migratory routes to areas further south in the Rocky Mountains and the Great Basin region. The elegant trumpeter swan is North America's largest waterfowl, with a wingspans of 8 feet (2.6 m) and they can weigh up to 30 pounds (13 kg). The elevation of the refuge ranges from 6,600 feet (2,000 m) to almost 10,000 feet (3,000 m) and consists of 65,810.25 acres (266.32 km2) of high elevation prairie and forested uplands. The lakes and cold water marshlands provide a relatively uncommon wetland environment favored by certain waterfowl and predatory birds such as the bald eagle and peregrine falcon. There have been sightings of over 250 different bird species in the refuge and over 100 different species are known to nest here. There are reportedly 20 nesting pairs of bald eagles on the refuge, and there have been several sightings of the endangered whooping crane. Numerous mammals can also be found here such as the American black bear, the Rocky Mountain elk, moose, mule deer, pronghorn, beaver, mink and badger. It is also believed that the grizzly bear and wolf packs may frequent the refuge, and wolverine have been recorded. The refuge has been designated a National Natural Landmark and the creation of the 32,350 acre (130.1 km2) Red Rock Lakes Wilderness in 1976 ensures that no further human improvements will be undertaken on the vast bulk of the refuge land. There are no maintained trails in the refuge and access to some areas is prohibited during certain times of the year. The refuge is staffed year round but accessibility to the refuge in the winter is often difficult. Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge is located 28 miles (45 km) east of Monida, Montana off Interstate 15.

Refuge faunique national Red Rock Lakes

Le Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge est un refuge éloigné situé à haute altitude dans la Centennial Valley, au sud-ouest de l'État américain du Montana. Adjacent à la forêt nationale de Gallatin et proche du parc national de Yellowstone, le refuge fait partie intégrante de l'écosystème du Grand Yellowstone. Red Rock Lakes est surtout connu pour être le lieu principal des efforts visant à sauver le cygne trompette de l'extinction, qui en 1932 comptait moins de 200 spécimens connus aux États-Unis et au Canada. En 2002, environ 3 000 cygnes trompettes hivernaient dans le refuge, dont beaucoup avaient migré vers le sud depuis leur aire d'été au Canada. Les cygnes trompettes sont maintenant si nombreux que des efforts sont entrepris pour les aider à rétablir les routes migratoires historiques vers des régions plus au sud dans les montagnes Rocheuses et la région du Grand Bassin. L'élégant cygne trompette est le plus grand oiseau aquatique d'Amérique du Nord, avec une envergure de 2,6 m et un poids allant jusqu'à 13 kg. Description L'altitude du refuge varie de 2 000 m à près de 3 000 m et se compose de 266,32 km2 de prairies de haute altitude et de hautes terres boisées. Les lacs et les marais d'eau froide offrent un milieu humide relativement peu commun, favorisé par certaines espèces de sauvagine et d'oiseaux prédateurs comme le pygargue à tête blanche et le faucon pèlerin. Il y a eu des observations de plus de 250 espèces d'oiseaux différentes dans le refuge et plus de 100 espèces différentes sont connues pour nicher ici. Il y aurait 20 couples nicheurs de pygargues à tête blanche dans le refuge, et il y a eu plusieurs observations de la grue blanche en voie de disparition. On y trouve également de nombreux mammifères tels que l'ours noir d'Amérique, le wapiti des montagnes Rocheuses, l'élan, le cerf mulet, le pronghorn, le castor, le vison et le blaireau. On pense également que les meutes de grizzlis et de loups peuvent fréquenter le refuge, et des gloutons ont été enregistrés. Protection Créé en 1932, le refuge a été désigné National Natural Landmark et la création des 130,1 km2 du Red Rock Lakes Wilderness en 1976 garantit qu'aucune autre amélioration humaine ne sera entreprise sur la grande majorité des terres du refuge. Il n'y a pas de sentiers entretenus dans le refuge et l'accès à certaines zones est interdit à certaines périodes de l'année. Le refuge est gardé toute l'année mais son accès en hiver est souvent difficile.

Red Rock Lakes Wilderness

The Red Rock Lakes Wilderness is within the Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge in southwest Montana, United States. The wilderness occupies more than three fourths of the refuge and was set aside to enhance species preservation, especially for such waterfowl as the trumpeter swan. By the mid-1930s, there were an estimated 69 trumpeter swans remaining in the lower 48 states and more than half of them were found in the region that is now the wilderness. The creation of the Wildlife Refuge marks one of the earliest attempts to ensure protection for a fast disappearing species and the wilderness designation enhances this habitat's protection status. U.S. Wilderness Areas do not allow motorized or mechanized vehicles, including bicycles. No roads or buildings are constructed and there is also no logging or mining, in compliance with the 1964 Wilderness Act. Wilderness areas within National Forests and Bureau of Land Management areas also typically allow hunting in season. Consisting of numerous lakes, marshes and other wetlands, a visitor is more likely to see sandhill cranes, great blue herons and ducks than the elusive trumpeter swan, even though their numbers have increased substantially. Moose, fox, porcupine and skunk are found year-round while elk, mule deer and pronghorn also frequent the wilderness. Though less common, black bears are sometimes seen here. On the western boundary of what is collectively known as the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, camping is not permitted but there are two nearby campgrounds available in the refuge. Hiking is permitted except in some areas during specific times of the year to protect wildlife. References External links "Red Rock Lakes Wilderness". The National Wilderness Preservation System.

Rialto Theater (Deer Lodge, Montana)

The Rialto Theater in Deer Lodge, Montana was built in 1921 with 720 seats. The Beaux Arts style theater featured extensive painted murals, artistic plaster designs, and a painted stage backgrounds. The distinctive exterior used white terra cotta and red roof tiles. The theatre was purchased in 1995 for $60,000 by a non-profit community organization that then began restoring and operating the theatre. The Rialto was gutted by a fire on November 4, 2006, that destroyed the stage, auditorium and balcony. Rebuilding costs were originally estimated in the 6 to 8 million dollar range. The Deer Lodge community immediately began undertaking the endeavor, and the theatre was officially reopened in May 2012. The rebuild was long and sustained and focused on historical reproduction, affordability, and practicality. The general contractor chosen, Martel Construction, was selected because of their willingness to work with volunteer labor and a long time frame. Final costs were approximately 3.4 million dollars. The theater is a contributing building in the Deer Lodge Central Business Historic District which was listed on the National Register in 1998. References
