Buffalo Peaks

Sat Aug 17 2019

Nate on the hike up with the Collegiate Peaks in the background.

This is a pair of 13ers outside Buena Vista, Colorado.    10 mile hike with about 3800 ft of gain.  Road hike to about 11,500 ft then just cross country.  No trail.  Saw 2 moose, 2 mountain goats, a deer and herd about 100 pika chirping at us.


Nate and I had a good day here.  The boulder field coming down seemed unending.  Beautiful day.  Wish I was able to get a picture of the moose we scared out of the thicket.

Mountain goats near the top of East Buffalo Peak.
