[pct-l] Quincy to Burney Falls Late July

[Gail]

My niece happens to have her Masters in biology, specializing in mosquitos.  She said that the buggers are attracted to carbon dioxide....so stop breathing!  LOL!  Obviously, that can't happen, but different people do give off differing amounts of CO2 through their skin.  Anything you do to stop that transpiration will help.
Golly

Hello Trail Friends and Mentors

I hope to hike Quincy to Burney Falls in late July this summer.

Does anyone know whether the bugs, mosquitos especially, are likely to be an issue in late July in this section? Your advice will help me plan clothes (with/without insect guard) and also whether to carry nets and spray. I am one of those hikers the mosquitos really like. :-)

Thank you so much for any light you cAn shed.
