So how really bad are the mosquitos in Alaska
I always heard the mosquitos are the Alaska state bird but never having been there I'd really like to know what it's like. Is there a season or time frame when they are worse than others Just out in...

I liked joe b's comment on the other thread when he said that you have to be really quick even when you are in the outhouses on the Denali Highway or the mosquitoes will make you pay!
Our worst mosquito problem last summer was at the Boya Lake Provincial Park campground on the Cassiar Highway. The following day, my wife bought one of the last headnets available in Watson Lake and used it frequently when we were setting up our trailer in public campgrounds. They didn't seem to be as bad in most private campgrounds--generally less water, fewer bushes and trees, and more open gravel "parking lots." Also, more fiberglass and aluminum per square foot of RV park plus more fresh meat (RVers) to divide amongst themselves!
