Resupply part 3

I've seen a lot of bugs, but this is crazy out here. Clouds of the most vicious bloodthirsty vampires I've ever seen. I crossed a lot of beautiful country but couldn't stop to soak it in. Instead I caught glimpses in between swats and curses, looking through a bug net and plotting escape routes. I'm definitely no rugged mountain man... the way I get spooked by bugs really is pathetic, and I don't think a day has passed since VVR that I didn't swear to leave the trail in a bug induced fury... Luckily I make it to a windy spot or eventually my bug net for the night and cool down and come to my senses. Two nights ago gives a good example: I decided to push hard and make it down to the valley and up and down the next pass just before dark. As usual, The bugs didn't notice I had bathed in deet so I had to rush for 2 and a half hours to keep ahead of them. Finally I made it to the lake I planned to stop at... the lake was more of a big swamp which means a huge hatchery of biteys...
