Pap,
No skeeters for sure but ticks are year round. I had Lyme Disease a couple of times (keep going back for more).

I have two state forests near by that I hunt in,one,11 miles away is 11.000 acres and the other is behind the outdoor range just 5 miles from me and that is 349 acres.

That one is the best kept secret in the state. I have hunted that for over 50 years and have seen about 6 other hunters.

A few years ago,a bow hunter harvested a 305 lb white tailed buck there. Haul that out of the woods and it is uphill both ways!!!
