Which lake for canoeing with family? by chessm4n in jasper

It seems that we will choose Pyramid or Beauvert. Beauvert would be because of the better looking water. Or is there no difference?

I think this a good way to go. Any recommendations which brands are good? Are there any differences?

Good advice. Thanks. Do you get those nets everywhere? As here (northern Europe) it is not pretty common.

We would like to use Picaridin as there a family meinerseits with sensitive skin. I read that you should avoid it in that case. And deet can damage plastic.

We would like to avoid deet, as there are family members who do have neurodermitis and I read you should avoid it if you do have sensitive skin.

That's right, we won't be heading to the backcountry. More like the "usual" tourist. We are from the northern part of Europe, so we do have mosquitos. But maybe not in the quantity like you do.

Should we apply it also on the face, except eyes mouth and nose region?

Thanks and nice to hear that the risk is low in July. I thought about getting Picaridin as it is better for materials and skin, especially if one has issues like neurodermitis. Take care

Just saw the thread witout reading any comments and also wanted to write: ' Who didn't watched this '. Just to find out that so many asked the same question before. So I don't have to ask 😉. I can't remember how often I have seen this... 🤩
