That's awesome news for me! Hopefully that holds true on Kodiak as well. We fly out in just over two weeks. 5 1/2 days on Kodiak then about 6 1/2 between Anchorage, Homer and Whittier. It's been 2 years in the making (had to cancel last year) and now I am getting nervous that something will go wrong and we'll have to cancel again.
Kodiak has had a bit more moisture than SC Alaska and has not had the record heat (IIRC) that Los Anchorage has....so the bugs might be at par for this year, but much of coastal Kodiak gets sea breezes which really helps.
Anch/Whittier/Homer should have a lower bug incidence than usual...again, at least in the somewhat developed areas: Was out on the boat last weekend out of Seward and pulled nearshore just because and got swarmed with gnats until a breeze took them away. Strange, but I don't think that will be the usual. Of course, it may hit 1-August and start raining everyday..who knows.
