We plan on doing the Arctic Circle Trail in the coming summer (august, maybe early september). Three questions, which we would be happy to know more about, before definitely planning the trip:
1). what is the best (meaning not the worst...) time concerning mosquitos? how bad is it REALLY?
2). we're just the two of us. would it be advisable to carry a radio (walkie-talkie) with us? is it possible to rent these in greenland...?
3). maybe a silly question... what about bears? I mean, the big white ones or grizzlies...
thanks a lot for your help!

Mosquitos can make you stay in your tent. The later the season, the better you'll be.
Radios between you is good if you plan to separate. Don't totally rely on them, though.
No bears.
