10/17/2012 Route: West ridge Posted On: 10/17/2012, By: d_baker Info: Hiked London Mtn & Pennsylvania Mtn today. Drove to turn-off for Mosquito Pass on CR 12/Mosquito Pass Rd with no issues. Current snow conditions did not impede on ascent of either peak. The wind was a different story! Routes: Hiked Mosquito Pass rd up to saddle of London & Repeater (13,548') in able to gain W ridge of London. Descended same way and crossed American Flats to saddle of Pennsylvania & Evans B, and hiked W ridge of Pennsylvania. Returned the same way we came. Surrounding peaks (Dyer, Evans B, "Repeater", Mosquito, Treasurevault, etc.) all look easily doable without much effort in snow. Photo 1: descending London, with "Repeater," Mosquito, & Treasurevault (l.to r.) to our W Photo 2: View of American Flats from summit of Pennsylvania.

9/18/2011 Route: West Ridge (Std route) Posted On: 9/19/2011, By: IHikeLikeAGirl Info: Hiked it in the afternoon. Dry, summer conditions. Came up Mosquito Pass Road from the east. Road was dry to London's ridge. Went up in a Ford Ranger with good clearance and tires. Could not have made it in my Jeep Liberty. Were a few small boulders on the road, but was able to squeeze by. |
