Description
The El Mosquito Side Trail (a name I gave it) drops down the hill from the middle of the El Mosquito Trail. At the bottom of the hill the trail comes out onto an old road by a stream. Turning right will take you down to the stream. Once in the stream valley the road quickly becomes grown in. Turning left on the road will take you down through the stream valley. The old road is not an official trail and has lots of blowdown, so is a bit difficult to traverse.
