Buffalo Mountain Hike- Head North, (left) on the BRPW to milepost 174. Turn left onto Conners Grove Rd. Go 1.4 miles and turn left onto Halls Store Rd. Go 1.5 miles and turn left onto Mole Rd. Go .9 ml to the end and follow the steep incline to the top and turn right. Follow this to the trailhead parking lot. The trail is a switchback, quite easy and short. At the top are phenomenal views and picnicking areas. Explore all around the top as there are other trails going down.
