    Red River Gorge Question

    Just how ferocious are the mosquitoes in RRG in mid June? Planning a 5 day excursion for 6/10-6/15.

    If they get too bad, stop by Miguel's Pizza for a break.

    I collect vintage camp stoves.
    I roast coffee at home.

    That is definitely part of the plan, with or without mosquitoes.

    I'm heading out there from 6/01-6/05. I'll let you know when I return. 2 years ago, we went in late May and I would call it "moderate to mild.”

    Mosquitoes not too bad. Was surprised. Humidity was incredible, steamy junglesque. Air probably too water dense for all but the strongest to fly.
