Widows Peak

An off-field landing area located in Lincoln County, WY

Located 25 miles north of Circle B Ranch, Widows Peak delivers an unforgettable off-field landing experience near Mt. Wagner. Pilots must adapt to unpredictable winds that shift throughout the day, adding extra difficulty to every approach. Think Sharktooth Ridge—this is a dangerous strip! Hug the rocks, use the wind, kick the rudder, and avoid going over the edge.

A hiking path leads to a secluded helipad and cabin offering a quiet retreat. Nearby fishing pools and natural springs provide areas to take in the scenery, while the surrounding terrain invites endless bush plane or Juice Goose adventures.

Whether stopping briefly or setting up camp with Campout Utility, Widows Peak is the perfect backcountry backdrop.
