Buffalo Mountain and Lake Dillon
from Sapphire Point
  Sapphire Point is the easiest stroll-with-a-view in Summit County.  The Point is an overlook 500' above Lake Dillon.  The trail itself has no elevation change and, at least as far as Sapphire Point, is easily negotiated by wheelchair hikers.  Other vistas are of the Gore Range, the Williams Fork Range, Dillon, Tenderfoot Mountain, Keystone, and the Continental Divide at its highest points.

From a parking lot on the Swan Mountain Road the trail loops around a forested hill for 3/4ths of a mile.
