Buffalo Mountain Hike

Buffalo Mountain is about 10 minutes up the road from us. Pretty gnarly hiking spot in the Eagles Nest Wilderness region of White River National Forest. Nick and I were having a pretty good time up until we started to get to the steep rock fields and deep snow, at which point we realized that we should cut our losses and realize that we were extremely ill-prepared; hungover/still drunk, wearing sneakers, and not bringing any gear is no way to hike a mountain that is 13,000 feet above sea level. I've hiked more intense mountains before, but I think we just underestimated it's size and our condition. Oh, and the arctic conditions above tree line. Lesson learned. Good times and exercise though. We'll be back to finish her off soon, it's gonna eat at me!
