| Went with my coworker - his first peak in 40 years! He did great! Nice mountain. Well cairned trail through the talus. The traverse to Sacred is cool. My first Gore peak - I know, I know. | |

| SenadR | Fishing vs Hiking Date Climbed: Jul 28, 2012 | |
| Blue River is not good fishing destination this summer, but Buffalo Mt is great hiking alternative, late start around 10 am, able to beat bad weather. Nice solo hike! | |

| mansfieo | Buffalo in Winter Date Climbed: Dec 28, 2012 | |
| Hardest Part was the semi-covered talus/boulder field just out of the trees. Bad snow year really messes things up... | |

| Couldn't find the trail under all that snow, but fortunately it's a pretty straight forward climb. | |

| Kruck | With Texans in Storm Date Climbed: Jul 26, 2011 | |
| Strangely, enjoyed this hike with two vacationing Texans. Nicest Dallas boys I've ever met. Was raining down in valley when we were up high. Storms that night and the next morning. Maybe not the best idea to climb, but no thunder until we got down. | |

| lordhelmut014 | late afternoon Date Climbed: Jun 15, 2010 | |
| did a quick later afternoon sunset hike, didn't encounter snow pretty much the entire way to the summit, just small patches here and there, brought and used some gaitors anyway. Great way to finish a day in Summit County, CO. | |

| lordhelmut014 | In search of Silver Date Climbed: Apr 18, 2010 | |
| Climbed and skied Silver Couloir with buddy Matt. Pretty cool looking down on my new hometown of Silverthorne and being able to get a zoomed in image of my apartment complex. Ski lived up to hype, its a classic, as are many lines in the Gores. | |

| Foxy Long Bottoms | Buffalo Mtn to Sacred Buffalo Date Climbed: Oct 4, 2009 | |
| Snow on the ridge and the crux made it spicey enough to keep me on my toes. The ridge is neat. The blue paint arrows were annoying to see in the wilderness. | |

| colinpence | great views of Dillon and Silverthorne Date Climbed: Sep 17, 2005 | |
| Since I climbed with Aaron Johnson, I can't improve on his descriptions, only agree with them. Fun scrambling, as you can see from the pictures he attached. | |

| DharmaBum1984 | Full Moon Hike Date Climbed: Sep 15, 2008 | |
| Hiked from Buffalo Cabin. Unplanned last minute ascent, sketchy partners, off route most of the way, in the dark. Much easier after the moon came up. Spent a long, long time on the summit. Must ski the Silver next year. | |

| farrisgl | Really nice Peak with a great view Date Climbed: Sep 14, 1994 | |
| I got within 500 vertical feet on a couple of occasions only to turn back due to the group or weather conditions. Finally summitted on a really clear day. Truely memorable. | |

| edlins | Lumpy Gravy Date Climbed: May 18, 2008 | |
| Snowshoed up std route, snowboarded down Silver Couloir from the summit. Condis not bad up top but got wetter and heavier all the way down. Huge debris field at bottom - pretty scary. Would have kicked butt in better snow. Tough uphill slog exit. 4:45 RT | |
