410 skeeters

[Outback89]

Hey guys, I'll be in the breaks the second week of September chasing elk. I've heard its been fairly wet up there this summer. How bad are the skeeters gonna be in there, or will August be a dryer pattern to keep them down around the river?

any local guys in here that could provide a weather report?

thanks in advance!

Do yourself a favor, read Lewis and Clarke's Journal about there time in NE Montana, it speaks of the insects there, plus it is interesting and pertains to the area you will be hunting.

I'll look into that, I'll be hunting with my brother, he's killed 3 bulls in there.. he hunted 2014 after all the august rains with the bugs being horrible.. I know every year is different weather wise. Thanks
