Mosquito Pass, CO

[RGINN]

We went down to Alma to Al-Mart, a general store that has the best selection of Carhart's around. Then we went over west towards Mosquito Pass and checked out some old mining era buildings.

Even more cool, Takoda, this place has a 2 room outhouse. No one has disturbed that, and I'm not sure about the ownership of this spot, but I just might go find out the hard way.

As Rginn will tell you. Those mines are so full of trash. Between the trash and horrible mineralization, It will drive a fella crazy. But, They didn't get all the gold I assure you of this. I have found it in the tailings. But it takes mad work! I don't know how our forefathers did it. rough life

I generally don't hunt sites like this cause they're prominent and probably been hunted to death. I have better luck finding spots where no buildings remain and people can tell something was there. The outhouse at this place hasn't been touched, and those are great places to look.
