Randall Scott staff hits Buffalo Creek trails in Pine Grove, CO

After hearing great things about the trails at Buffalo Creek, we decided that we better check this one out for ourselves to see if the rumors are true. They say we get over 300 sunny days a year out here in Colorado and of course the day we chose the weather report called for rain all day.

We left Boulder around 8:30 am and the sky looked ominous, but no rain yet. That didn’t last long, not more than a half hour later the rain came and continued as we drove through Golden and down to Pine Grove. By the time we arrived at the trailhead, the rain was consistent, but we had come this far so why not continue on, which is exactly what we did.

Surprisingly the trails were fine condition despite the rain, only a few puddles in places and scattered patches of mud. What an amazing place, the trails are really buff.

We started on the Colorado trail and took it to Green Mountain loop and then back the way we came in on the CT. The ride was awesome with nice climbs and killer downhill sections. Nothing too technical, mostly rollers, and at times true single track. We highly recommend this ride and look forward to returning to explore other trails in the area.
