Every day, we highlight one of Okemo's 126 trails. Today's trail is* #### 🟢 [Buckhorn](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/buckhorn) ![Buckhorn](https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Buckhorn.jpeg) Unless you take the slow ride up [Glades Peak Quad](https://www.okemozone.com/lifts/glades-peak-quad), you may never pass by Buckhorn. If the [Sunburst Six](https://www.okemozone.com/lifts/sunburst-six) is on wind hold, you'll use Buckhorn to get back to the Main Face and Summit Lodge. It's also the only way to access [Triplesec](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/triplesec) and the top section of [Challenger](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/challenger). There is a slight uphill slope, so try to get as much speed as you can at the top of the trail. If you reached the summit via the [South Face Express Quad](https://www.okemozone.com/lifts/south-face-express-quad), you can reach Buckhorn via [Sun Dog](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/sun-dog) and then going up a short but steep section of [Rimrock](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/rimrock). ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.okemozone.com%2Fdaily%2F2025-12-26](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.okemozone.com%2Fdaily%2F2025-12-26) ## Keep reading [![Outrage - Trail of the Day](https://www.okemozone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Outrage.jpeg?width=5395&height=4046&name=Outrage.jpeg) ### Thu, Apr 16: 15 trails (+1), ☁️ 61/78° ](https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2026-04-16) [![Sunset Strip - Trail of the Day](https://www.okemozone.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/IMG_2788.jpeg?width=5712&height=4284&name=IMG_2788.jpeg) ### Wed, Apr 15: 17 trails (-20), ☁️ 54/73° ](https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2026-04-15) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "OkemoZone", "url" : "https://www.okemozone.com/daily/author/okemozone" }, "dateModified" : "2025-12-26T12:05:41.290Z", "datePublished" : "2025-12-26T12:05:41.000Z", "headline" : "Fri, Dec 26: 60 trails (+10), ☁️ 7-18°", "image" : [ "https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Buckhorn.jpeg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://www.okemozone.com/daily/2025-12-26", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/logos/okemozone.png" }, "name" : "OkemoZone" } } ```
