Buffalo Peaks Loop
Since the passage of the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993, the Buffalo Peaks have become the centerpiece of the 43,410-acre Buffalo Peaks Wilderness Area. Following a pair of scenic drainages across the north slope of these prominent 13,000-foot mountains, the Rich Creek and Rough and Tumbling Creek Trails can be combined to create one memorable loop hike.
