There was no real point in changing the name of the upper part of Orleans Place to Mardi Gras other than marketing. They could have added the same rides with the same themes without changing the name of the section.
As for Iron Wolf being in County Fair or Yukon, although the theme would work better in Yukon, it's way too late now. Why they chose the name Iron Wolf for a coaster in a section themed about a midwestern county fair? I don't know. The fact is that the park put it in County Fair and it's most likely going to stay in that section for as long as it is at the park.

Should Iron Wolf be part of Yukon Territory?

You either read bad info or remember wrong, John, the plans were for a 225 foot coaster in Yukon.
The Mr. Freeze coaster would have gone where Camp Cartoon Network is currently at in the park, therefore, it would have been in Yukon Territory.

Marathon down, Goofy to go.
maybe john's source was confused. after the Freeze project was cancled, I believe the park moved onto RB which, obviously, ended up in SWT. perhaps the source fused the two projects into one?
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer? No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.
Here's a link to the 1997 Chicago Tribune article that's been discussed on the forums before.
