    Default Mosquito Pass 10/5/21



    Louis and I met up in Fairplay and then headed up Highway 9 to Mosquito Pass Rd which turns into County Rd 12. It's a pretty easy trail that just about any stock 4x4 could do. On the way up the pass we were almost mauled by a marmot that had snuck up on us. We were the only people on the trail until a Tacoma caught up to us at the top. This trail is pretty short with great views and a couple offshoots to other summits that we did not check out.

    for sure better day than a few years ago, we had 70mi gusts and whiteout. Great scenery, the aspens are still colorful but not much time left. Some of the north facing peak already holding onto the snow.
