Mosier Gulch

Mosier Gulch Picnic Area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and the City of Buffalo and is adjacent to the Bighorn National Forest, managed by the USDA Forest Service. This ponderosa pine-forested area lies at the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains.

The recreation area encompasses almost 900 acres of ponderosa pine-forested lands ranging from 5,500 feet to 6,800 feet, and is a popular hiking area. A developed roadside picnic area complete with multiple parking areas, picnic tables, pedestal fire grates, and a vault toilet are available.

In addition, the picnic area is along the Clear Creek Trail which leads back to the city of Buffalo to the east or into the Bighorn Mountains to the west.

Other opportunities at Mosier Gulch include trout fishing along Clear Creek, hunting and wildlife viewing with opportunities to see mule deer, antelope, eagles, and occasionally black bear and elk.

Mosier Gulch is a day use only facility. Camping, open fires, and target shooting are prohibited. There is a hand-pump well available during the summer months. Please help us keep the area clean and pack your trash out as garbage collection is not provided.
