Normally you wouldn’t think we’d like to see snow in June (especially after 6 months of deep winter. But the skiff we got yesterday morning was welcome. You see, the mosquito season was just beginning. The snow killed the mosquitoes and we now have another week or two mosquito-free. Then we’ll need to pray for snow again. Hopefully that cycle will continue until the sap starts running in earnest in the pines and the pollen settles on the ground (and everything else.) Only then can we bid goodbye to the mosquito season for yet another spring.
At any rate, you’ve got at least a week of mosquito-free enjoyment in Island Park and the surrounding area. You’d better get up here and enjoy it while you can. Fishing is good. Temperatures are fresh and comfortable. Wildlife is abundant and found everywhere. And most of all, it’s just a great time to be in Island Park. See you soon!
