About Mosquito Lake

A pleasant medium sized site located on the shoreline of Mosquito Lake. The campground also includes a small day-use shelter and boat launch. Don't worry, the lake wasn't named for the pesky little insect but rather to honour the legendary aircraft. The Mosquito was the fastest aircraft in the world in 1941-44. It was manufactured using the high quality Sitka Spruce growing in this valley.
