Tips

July 7, 2023

Mount Democrat is a very popular mountain summit in the Mosquito Range. Its peak rests at 14,155 feet, and it's a relatively short trek from the upper parking lot (situated over 12,000 feet) to the top. The summit is often combined with other 14ers in the same basin.

Mount Democrat serves as the first 14er in the DeCaLiBron loop when being completed in the clockwise direction. Because there is a lot of private property on the DeCaLiBron loop, all four peaks (including Democrat) are subject to closure by the private landowners.
