Nature lovers and history buffs will have plenty to talk about when visiting Mosquito Lake. Not only is the lake visually appealing with its eye-catching surroundings and tranquil waters, but it also has a historical significance. The area has been occupied intermittently over the past 4,000 years by the ancestors of the modern Nunamiut Eskimos. This was most likely their hunting grounds on which they captured caribou and Dall sheep. In a sense, it is an outdoor living history lesson that is a pleasure to experience and learn.
