- The Wolf Creek Trail takes you to an incredible place, but the journey requires incredible patience. This up-and-down trail covers 21 miles with a cumulative elevation gain of almost 4,300 feet round-trip. The first 8 miles, and the last, are through a forest impacted by the 2021 Cedar Creek Fire. Your reward for the effort is magnificent Gardner Meadows, a prairie-like valley set between towering peaks and jagged ridges.
