At 13,326 feet, West Buffalo is just barely the highest of the two peaks. The ridge walk between the two summits is never more intricate than class 2 moves but does require some route finding and boulder hopping.

The views from the top of West Buffalo Peak gives you the eagle's eye over all of the land nearby. Across the valley you will be able to see a number of 14ers in the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness, and to the east you can see Pikes Peak (on a clear day).
