Buffalo Peak

Saw a couple of rattlesnakes right on the trail as I got closer to the top. Be extra careful. Keep ears open for the rattle.

Very short hike. There is one pretty steep area at the last leg but just take it slow and you'll get there. We took my 3 and 5 year old and they did it by themselves up and back with no problems. It is a very scenic area. Lots of wild flowers and lots of butterflies when we were there. Great place to look into the valley.

This is one of our very favorite family trails. Lots of pink, white, deep purple, yellow and blue flowers. Amazing view of Utah Valley, the lake, surrounding meadows and incredible mountains.

Beautiful at this time of year! Dirt road getting up is pretty rough for a passenger car. I was glad we were in a Jeep. The drive is beautiful too, so you don't need to hike to enjoy it

Lovely hike, great area to take photos in the fall. Gorgeous views and it isn’t too crowded. You may want a four wheel drive vehicle because the road can get a little intense at times but if you take it slow a Prius can handle the dirt road. It can get dusty and there are some great views of wildlife.

A BEAUTIFUL HIKE. hard though. We clocked 1,400 feet of elevation for the total 4.47 miles. The hike up is steep and the trail is narrow, would not recommend for kids and dogs could potentially be risky as well.
Park at squaw (kjhv) peak overlook and then the trail is to the left of the parking lot. Not too many bugs and we only saw one other group hiking.
It’s definitely challenging but rewarding! So beautiful.

Quite a difficult hike, I started at slate canyon. Early may. The trail was flooded from all the precipitation this year, the snow map said 2" snow max. There was at least 4 and a half feet hahah. At that point the trail was unseeable. The elevation gain was steep. Not sure how much though. It's a really fun hike! Word of caution if it's early spring
