This is a guide for the Wolf Creek BioBlitz on August 22nd. Wolf Creek Pass straddles the Continental Divide between two of the largest intact wilderness areas in the Southern Rockies – the Weminuche and South San Juan wildernesses. Wolf Creek Pass is an important wildlife linkage that is heavily used by Canada lynx moving between different core habitat areas to find food, den sites and mates, and by young lynx dispersing to new territories. This beautiful natural area is also important habitat for a diversity of wildlife and plants. The Wolf Creek BioBlitz, organized by Rocky Mountain Wild, is part of a larger effort by a coalition of conservation organizations to conserve this area, which is currently threatened by a proposed year round resort development housing up to 8,000 people.
