We stopped by Mosquito Lake this afternoon on our way back from Markleyville, which is just south of Lake Tahoe, CA. We took the Kit Carson trail, now a road, from Folsom to Markleyville, and Route 4 back. This beautiful lake had snow still in spots all around it and I stopped to frame this shot using two pine trees on either side. Sunday Stills Challenge for July 4, 2010.

Could you tell the story behind the name
Gail, I don't know the story behind its name. We had never been through this particular area before! There were a lot of fishermen and women here at this lake, however!
Good job...such a peaceful place for Independence day too.
Very nice! The name makes me itch!
I'd bet that lake is aptly named! Nice photo.
perfect shot! Looks very peaceful.
