About this spot
Cliff jumping on Buffalo Bill Reservoir west of Cody, with ledges reached from pull-offs along the North Fork Highway on the north shore - a community submission notes it is friendly for newer jumpers with reliably deep water, and visitors report jumps up to about 40 ft. The pin marks the general north-shore area, not one ledge: scout from the highway pull-offs. Part of Buffalo Bill State Park (day-use fees apply); the lake is known for strong afternoon winds, so mornings are calmest. Check depth where you land - reservoir levels swing with irrigation drawdown through the season.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
