    Running

    Mosquito Pass (sandwiched between Mosquito Peak and Mount Evans "B") sits at 13,185 feet atop an old mining road. This is the turn-around point for the famous Leadville Marathon and is the highest point out of all of their races.

    The pass separates the towns of Alma and Leadville and requires some real clearance and 4wd abilities to reach via car. The high mountain pass offers access to some of the nearby peaks and views of the Sawatch, Mosquito, and Tenmile Ranges.
