A farming and ranching community 25 miles north of Columbus between Hailstone National Wildlife Refuge andHalfbreed National Wildlife Refuge, in Stillwater County, Rapelje is home to just over 110 residents. Both are a part of the Big Lake Complex and the most productive areas in central Montana for waterfowl and shorebirds. The refuge is a breeding ground for migratory birds and other wildlife. In 1913, the community’s name was changed from “Lake Basin” to Rapelje, and was named for J. M.Rapelje, general manager and vice president of the Northern Pacific Railway. Rapelje served as a railroad destination point throughout the 1800’s and created a thriving community in Northern Stillwater County. The railroad was taken out in 1980. The small community now sustains on an agriculture base which supports a school, café,and Post Office. Rapelje is home to Montana’s original 24-hour endurance mountain bike race held on the weekend in June closest to the summer solstice.
