Here we go again another night to remember with the wolf pack!!! The “Winter Wolf III“ saw a zero degree heat wave. Out of one hundred twenty plus runners the Wolf claimed only two, that we found.  Now the Iron Wolf brings more insanity, more fear, same hills with miles of puff sand, all the fun of kayaking upstream, on foot river crossings and as always with the wolf darkness.

You know the story.  For decades the Witchy Wolf has roamed the wilderness known as the Omer Plains.  The Witchy Wolf’s habitat, divided by the Rifle River, contains vast stretches, of woods traveled only by the Wolf himself.  This creature is rarely seen, but often is hunted by teenagers into the wee hours of the night. The only tangible evidence of its existence seems to be a trail of empty beer cans and young ladies with their pants, scared off, literally. Still the sightings continue, the legend continues.  Our hope is that with so many easy targets the Wolf will come out for an easy snack and finally a specimen can be captured.

You don’t have to be the fastest runner…..

Just faster than the one behind you

OTHER ACTIVITIES

 

 

 

WATER
WWIMPS 

 

The creators and caretakers of the Witchy Wolf series of races, WWIMPS continues to raise the bar for challenges and adventure. 

 

Our newest offering WATER WWIMPS brings a new level of challenge to kayaking the Rifle River, Wigwam and Saginaw Bay.  We offer guided Kayak touring of some of the most beautiful and wildlife filled areas.

 

Several tours are available lasting from 5 to 8 hours. 

 

As with all WWIMPS adventures these tours are not for everyone, a considerable amount athleticism and physical endurance are required as very little of the trips are” downstream rides”.  Additionally weather conditions on the bays can change unpredictably and rapidly increase the challenge.
