U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, The Sheldon and Hart Mountain Refuges are remote and expansive jewels of high-desert habitat, set aside in the 1930s for the conservation of pronghorn antelope. Thirty years later, a centralized administrative office for the two refuges was established in Lakeview, Oregon to meet the increasing demands of managing these habitats and the need for basic commercial services and amenities. Today, refuge maintenance staff and field biologists remain at remote stations on the refuges while administration, outreach, biological investigations, and fire management services are provided from Lakeview.
