A buddy of mine is into these "Mountain Man" campouts. Frequently they do it in Minus 20 weather or some such silliness (No Mossy's) But sometimes they incorporate semi-modern rituals like Moose hunting. Last time he went to Maine and they had this ZZTop lookin' guide that "Hooked" them all up with the ultimate mosquito repellent; It's this rancid repugnant incredibly Foul smelling paste called simply "BEAR GREASE". And apparently it works (you smear the crap all over you)--it actually repels the World itself and everything in it,(except, oddly enough, Moose!) in fact, it stinks SOOO Bad that users are cautioned not to wear it next to clothing, auto (TRUCK) upholstery, carpet, the family dog--basically anything that you don't plan to burn and then bury when you're done with it. On a positive note, it lives up to the guarantee; No mosquito bites or your money back! Oh yea, you also have to spritz yourself with Male Moose Urine, just to aggravate the massive territorial beast you're hunting, and presumably because it smells like a bouquet of flowers compared to BEAR GREASE! I'll have my Bacon-nana thank you!
