About the Buffalo Plateau trail

1,574 feet of elevation gain over 3.5 miles: that is Buffalo Plateau, a one-way route in Yellowstone National Park running between 8,119 and 9,466 feet. The steepest pitch reaches 35 percent, against an average of 450 feet of gain per mile. The 3.5 miles is the one-way distance of the drawn route. On our gain-and-distance scale it falls in the moderately strenuous band. The nearest town is Gardiner, about 16 miles away.

The area

Yellowstone National Park is a national park of the United States located mainly in the northwest corner of the state of Wyoming, with small portions extending into Montana and Idaho. The park is known for its wildlife and its many geothermal features, especially the Old Faithful geyser, one of its most popular.
