Preserving & Enhancing the Mosquito Range

Whether resident or visitor, MRHI was organized by and for those who are passionate about the beauty and fragility of our Mosquito Range mountain resources.

Our mission: The Mosquito Range Heritage Initiative, through cooperative efforts, seeks to conserve unique natural areas, preserve historic & cultural sites, promote diverse recreation and develop community business opportunities.

Our Continental Divide study area spans the Mosquito Range Mountains north to south from Hoosier Pass to Weston Pass, and east to west from the Middle Fork of the South Platte River to the Park County line.

Whether the issue involves access to 14ers (14,000+ foot mountains), preserving sensitive wetlands, rebuilding a well-worn trail or saving a historic mining structure, MRHI is there. These precious resources are the reason we live here…and the incentive for worldwide travelers to select this as their destination.
