Spanish TH to Spanish Lake
Mosquito's were far and few between leading to a score of 0 from the trail to the lake.
Real issue was the yellow jackets. Everywhere from Statham Meadow to Spanish lake. They started buzzing the tents at 6:15am and were bad again in the evening. 2 adults and one dog got stung.

Emigrant Wilderness (Gianelli TH) Aug 31-Sept 1
Gianelli to Granite Lake, then Leopold Lake and back out again.
Mosquitos were a 0, but plenty of non-biting flies and hoverflies or maybe western wood flies?
I brought no bug protection and that was fine, no regrets.
