Alaska Mosquitoes

Any one travailing to Alaska should be prepared for the increased insect
problem this year. For some reason they seem worse than ever.

Yea, I saw the same article and posted about it, Doh!

Since we are planning some hikes inside Denali, I went looking for
bug protection. I found two sites that look interesting:

http://bluequillangler.com/shopsite_.../buzz-off.html

Which offers cloths with repellent built in and

http://www.akanorak.com/

Which looks promising but perhaps a bit warm for the summer.

Anyone have any experience with either of these?
