> Alaska would like a word. Worst mosquitoes (both in size and number) I’ve ever experienced .... In Alaska's Brooks Mountain Range above the Arctic Circle, on a Boy Scout "summer" backpacking trip in 2006, my son and his friends amused themselves by slapping each other on the back with their gloved hands: They wanted to see who could kill the most mosquitoes with one handprint. My son won, with 39 dead. (I was there as one of the adult leaders — to steal from another adult leader, my own idea of roughing it is when there's bad coffee at the Hampton Inn's free breakfast bar ....) |
