Aug 24th 2022 Although I have been up Noseeum Mountain and also explored around the Lake and Plateau I have not made a loop of this hike by coming out at Mosquito Creek. This is the usual start for Molar Pass North and South. Car shuttle required although it is only about 1 km.
So we started at the Noseeum Creek pull off and walked up the creek. Picture shows what I called the crux to start to go up passed the waterfall to the Plateau. Then go to the south and east to look over into the Molar Pass area. The way down needs a bit of navigating and there is no trail. there are a few spots that need to be scrambled down. There is also a very steep scree shoot down. I believe this can be by passed by going around to the south. Then it is a nice hike up to the South Molar Pass. I did not enjoy the walk back out to Mosquito Creek as I have done it many times and it ended up been 19 km for the loop.
My advise would be to not bother doing the loop but the beauty of Noseeum is well worth the hike but return the same way.
