Druid Peak is a prominent peak on the north side of the Lamar Valley. Rising adjacent to Rose Creek, where two sets of wolves were released in successive years, one of the wolf packs was named after the peak, i.e., the Druid Peak Pack., released in 1996.

Between 1997 and 2004, the Druid Peak Pack always denned on Druid Peak. In 2005, for the first time, the old den site was wolfless -- the Druids moved upriver under pressure from the Slough Creek wolf pack.

Below is the general area of the Druid Pack's den sites
over the years.
