We were planning a trip to Emigrant Wilderness for the last week of the month, but we just called the Ranger Station out there and they told us that mosquito levels are approaching hazmat-suit levels. So we need a plan B for a 5-night trip that we can drive to from San Francisco and that won't be super buggy in a couple weeks.
We just got back from a weekend at Lassen NP, and that was really nice with minimal mosquitoes (though the lack of snow this early in the year is a sad statement on the climate). So I'm thinking the Cascades might be better than the Sierras. It's a longer drive to Oregon than is ideal, but that's something we can do. Does anyone have any suggestions?
