07/09/2017 04:00PM We were on South and Duncan Lakes this past week. The black flies were biting a bit on Duncan, but we did not notice any on South. Mosquitoes were hungry by the latrines on both lakes. We chose elevated sites so the wind would keep them at bay a bit more. Honestly, I did not find them too terribly oppressive. And I am thankful that they were not all over me on the portages or hikes. |
