Great ride, trail is very well marked. I would suggest mixing in some other trails in the area for your ride back such as redskin creek to whatever. Just Google search Buffalo Creek trail map. This ride should be ranked much higher.

I've ridden almost all of this, and it is classic Colorado trail!

Most of the singletrack in the Buffalo Creek area is very nice. However, the last few miles from road 543 to the wilderness boundary is very wide and not that interesting. Then, the dead end into the wilderness is a bummer. If you want more miles without repeating yourself in the BC area, you can combine this with the other fork on Rolling Creek for a few more miles of out-and-back into another part of the LC Wilderness. In any case, there are much better routes in the BC area.* Review edited 10/31/2009

From the Buffalo Creek trailhead on the Colorado trail, hop on and head right instead of climbing over the fence with the steps, and follow the Colorado trail for about 5 miles (mostly climbing) to the Lost Creek Wilderness boundary. Turn around, and spend almost 5 miles descending back to where you started.

You can also make a nice out and back (13 mi round trip) from the Kenosha Pass trailhead south to the wilderness boundary and back. A good climb at altitude, a fun downhill, and killer scenery.

I rode about 5 miles (10 miles total) of this trail. In the morning when I woke up, I got on the trail and went for about 5 miles then turned around. That much of the trail was great I would like to ride the rest of this trail some time though.
