Found two attached to my belly this morning. Might have got them from Heidi, or moving pipe in the pasture. Worst places in this area are Big and Little Lost River valleys, and Birch Creek valley. Some areas of the desert are bad, too. Green River Basin in Wyoming is full of them, too. I got Rocky Mntn Spotted Fever from a tick bite there several years ago. Will be treating my clothing with Permethrin before heading for the Cutoff tomorrow.
