Early season hunts can be brutal on the skin when bugs are doing their best to enjoy a last meal before the snow falls. When that last meal is you it can make for a long, itchy, uncomfortable hunt. It is even worse when there are bugs swarming all over like what Guy Eastman and Brandon Mason experienced on their 2014 Caribou hunt in northern Quebec. Press play to watch just how bad the bugs were and how they protected themselves.
