London Mountain

The narrow road to the summit, located in the Mosquito Range, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. It’s called County Road 696. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Snow is usually not plowed, so trail opens later in the season. It’s an old mining road. Along the way the trail passes historic mining structures. Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4WD vehicle with good clearance and sturdy tires required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. Conditions can change rapidly, be careful of the weather. Access through snow can change daily.
