[pct-l] DEET - where?

[randy_forsland at hotmail.com (Randy Forsland)]

The skeeters aren't a problem until the deep into the high sierras..Tully 
Hole brings back fond memories...The section thru Yosemite up until Dorothy 
lake is also quite bad..as is the Desolation Wilderness at times.

I only used deet one time on my trip in 2003. I opted for a bug shirt for 
most of the trip. it worked out a lot better than using chemicals and you 
didn't transfer all that smell to your sleeping bag at night.
