An Outdoor Adventure Mecca
MAKING THE MOST OF BUFFALO’S GORGES, SHORES AND TRAILS
By Drew Brown

uffalo has a growing reputation as a full-fledged destination for outdoor enthusiasts. Some of that buzz is being generated by Kevin Cullen and Christian Edie, owner-operators of SUP Erie Adventures, and the many friends and fans they’ve made on kayaking and kite surfing outings on Lake Erie.
How would you describe the Buffalo region as an outdoor destination? Is it really as good as we think? Kevin & Christian: Buffalo is pretty special. There are so many accessible activities that you can do all within a one-hour drive. Our favorite thing to do is try and do as many activities as possible in one day! Year round there is so much to do, but in the winter the variety of activities really shines. With the variety and quality of outdoor activities it really is a world class outdoor recreation destination stacking up to places like Oregon and New Zealand.
