Our week started with a North Country Trail out-and-back hike on the Peter Wolfe Chapter’s segment 28 and part of 29 to the east of the East Branch of the Ontonagon River. We hiked an out-and-back from the east end of segment 29 in late May 2021. Last year’s hike was an experience out of a horror movie! There would have been no way we could have done it without head nets. Even with them, the buzzing from the mosquitoes and black flies was incessant and we were constantly swatting them. With only a couple of weeks difference, we had no mosquitoes and just a few black flies this year.
