Trail Overview
Buffalo Horn single track starts at the Buffalo Horn Trailhead, at the end of Buffalo Horn Creek Road, off Highway 191. It begins on a wide dirt path, with tons of aggressive deep bumps and troughs horizontally across the trail from horse usage. It crosses small streams, sometimes going over small bridges over the creeks, and has horse poop everywhere. It does some shelfy side hilling above the Buffalo Horn Creek and narrows at the bottom of steep slopes. The trail has a lot of fast and flowy sections through meadows, but it also has a lot of sections that have been torn apart and blown out by all the horses. It's unavoidable if taking this trail to connect to the rest of the single track, but it's pretty brutal going through all the bumps and chopped-up sections and horse poop.

Difficulty
This single track is an easy difficulty, although it does have lots of section with roots, rocks, and mild exposure as it side-hills. It's easier than the surrounding trails, and should be manageable for beginner riders with a bit of experience.
