In the vicinity of the 11,542ft Hoosier Pass south of Breckenridge, CO are a number of trails leading up high into the Tenmile Range - Mosquito Range. This pass is along the Continental Divide and also marks the boundary between Park County and Summit County to the north. Accessible year-round by CO State Highway 9 (weather-permitting), many first see this area attempting Quandary Peak, one of the more accessible and 'easier' 14ers in the state. Also in this area are the McCollough Gulch Trail, Mohawk Lakes Trails and Wheeler National Recreation Trail. On the south side of the pass is a cluster of four 14er peaks known as the Decalibron.
