This wildlife habitat area lies 15 miles south of Laramie Peak and 40 miles west of Wheatland where the Laramie Plains meet the southern end of the Laramie Range.
Duck Creek Canyon offers visitors a scenic adventure up to Duck Creek Falls where the creek drops 100 feet over a rock ledge. There are more rocky trails into Duck Creek which require the use of ropes for technical rock climbing.
Bighorn sheep may be found in this area and as part of the Laramie Peak Herd Unit. Mule deer, elk, antelope, black bears, and coyotes reside here. Wild turkeys, blue grouse, various ducks, songbirds, and cottontail rabbits are also present. Fishing for trout is permitted on Duck Creek and Cherry Creek. A man-made pond also provides good fishing opportunities.
