[pct-l] Mosquito situation around Mt. Jefferson

[David Sorrentino]

So exactly when is it that the larger, noisier night time mosquito's perform the shift change with the smaller, quieter day time mosquito's? Might I also ask, could there be another reason why they seem to be larger and noisier in the quiet, dark of the night? Please consider what happens to a person who spends too much time alone in the woods!

 

Ever higher,

> I was thru the area about 3 days ago, stayed at Shale Lake that night.  The mosquitos  weren't too bad in the evening - and I was on the downwind side of the lake, indeed there was a little pond at the back of my campsite.  No problem with them while on the move.  The daytime mosquitos are different from the night time ones - the ones out during the day are little and don't buzz much.  The night ones are bigger, but - again, not too many.
