Pike National Forest: Wigwam Trail
Buffalo Creek, CO
Pike National Forest: Wigwam Trail
The drive to the trailhead takes hikers through massive square miles of burned forest that were torched in Colorado’s largest wildfire, the Haymen Fire (2002). In contrast, the Wigwam Trail testifies to what did survive. Lush, green, heavy vegetation and tall evergreen trees are quite a relief. Off of the beaten path, the trail is lightly used and hikers do not encounter many other humans.
