Hiking
La Mosca Lookout is a firetower located at the end of a service road close to the peak Mount Taylor. This 11,000 foot summit of its own offers less obstructed views than Mount Taylor simply due to no trees blocking one's sight. If you are looking for more of a challenge, add this peak to your hike up Mount Taylor to make for a multi-summit day.
