Mohawk Lakes- in fall Breckenridge Colorado

This was my first time hiking Mohawk Lakes. We did this in October and there was quite a bit of snow. We started at the trailhead of Spruce Creek.



This trail is know for the many social or side trails. I took along my GPS to help keep us on the trail.


There are lots of old mining structures along the trail.

The first body of water are the Mayflower lakes.



Here is one of the hiker huts along the trail.

Inside the hut there was a log that lots of hikers had written in.  
Beautiful views all around.

There is a waterfall along the trail.

More mining structures


Finally made it to Lower Mohawk lakes.


Starting the climb up to Upper Mohawk Lakes. We needed spikes because it was so steep.


Mohawk Upper Lake. Total distance was 6.7miles with an elevation gain of +1810.
