We are entering the Q through Beaverhouse on Friday August 10th. How are the bugs?

I just got out, and they were very manageable. We had one night with warm temps and a high dew point, and they were bad for 30 minutes right around sundown. Otherwise, not bad at all.

I'll second what Carmike said. Skeeters not bad at all compared to previous years. Some numbers at dusk, other than that, just nuisance level. Thermocell seemed to help. We did have one evening worse than others, but all the other evenings were decent.

I got out of Beverhouse a few weeks ago, same report. Only problem I had was skeeters in the brush. In the open no issues.

Have a great trip

They live there!

If we aren't actively working to protect our planet, we are acquiescing to those who run their life as if their personal WANTS are the only things that matter. John
