    Tips

    July 7, 2023

    Of the two Buffalo Peaks, East Buffalo is the shortest at 13,300 feet. That being said, it also has the tougher slopes. Both peaks require some alpine route finding and class 2 scrambling, but the ascent/descent for East Buffalo is a little rockier. This is why a proposed loop for both peaks goes up East Buffalo and down West Buffalo.
