I saw some 30-40 lb. coyotes up there in august, but no wolves.

No doubt there are big coyotes up there but even a 40lb coyote wouldn't leave the size of tracks I was seeing in the snow.

Here is a picture of the track. They looked to be made yesterday, just my opinion though. There were two sets of tracks.
