Before Matt moved out here, he came to visit in October 2011 for his birthday weekend. There was already snow in the mountains but it was in the mid 60s so we thought a hike in the Rockies was the best way to start our Colorado adventures!
Mohawk Lake Trail is just a few miles past Breckenridge. There are about 30 parking spots at the end of Spruce Creek Road where the trail starts. The first half is through the trees as you approach the tree line. There is a beautiful lake that makes a great place to grab a drink of water and take in the scenery.
Continental Falls are about 2 miles up, can't miss that. Look for the rusty cable on the ground from old miners. As you continue to climb you will reach Lower Mohawk and Upper Mohawk lakes.
