One question about the mosquitoes. I have read...June, not good. No smelly stuff. No dark clothing (esp. blue). Long sleeves. At least 20% deet. Sun better that shade. Wind better that calm. Worse evenings and daybreak (when are those periods on 21 hour sunny days?!)

Question: We have head nets (trip to South New Zealand, an Alaskan fishing trip floating on a river for 3 days), should we bring them and carry in our day packs?

Headed to Anchorage, Fairbanks, Dawson, Whitehorse, Tok, Denali (3 days), Skagway and Ketchican (although not in that order). June 4th to 20th. Bus, train, boat, ship with tours along the way. I am susceptible to being bit.

Thank you.
