Yes COLD nights from Lake of the Woods or Fish Lake north the Altitude
increases for a while.
Mid September last year I used a campfire to keep warm at 4 am.
This year in August I gathered wood just in case. Never used it.
If I remember right, July is peak Mosquito season there. They were pretty
much gone late August.
