This PNW warm weather is pushing my weekend trip season a little later than usual, and I was just wondering if anyone knows how the mosquitoes are right now up in the Cascades, near Skykomish, Washington? I think I've got time for an overnight this week and I'm trying to decide whether to tarp or tent. I don't have a bug bivy/net-tent yet, only a headnet. Thanks!
A few bugs in Oregon Cascades. I swatted a couple but mostly just ignored them. Maybe bring DEET just in case. I almost always were long pants and shirt regardless of bugs. When we get a good freeze it'll kill off the few remaining. nwhikers.net
In Goat Rocks this past weekend, I only got one bite. And mosquitos love me.
Marked contrast to Stevens Pass in mid-August. My ankles had 20+ bites each. (note to self: mosquitoes can bite through thin wool socks.)

Retro Racing Character, Built for Everyday WearDrawing on the colorful racing chronographs of the 1960s and '70s, the RS1 Rally pairs vintage motorsport style with the durability expected from a Vaer. Its 40mm case houses a Japanese VK63 meca-quartz chronograph movement, complete with stopwatch functionality and an integrated tachymeter scale, while contrasting subdials give the watch its distinctive retro character. Sapphire crystal, 100 meters of water resistance, a screwdown crown, and strong BGW9 lume make it far more than a style piece. At under $300, it's an easy pick for the car enthusiast or chronograph fan.
