Some of my students go out for hikes and collect ticks along the trails. We've looked for Colorado Tick Fever Virus by RT-PCR. It would be easy enough to go back through the samples for rickettsia. Montana isn't known for Lyme disease, so it would probably be a waste of resources to check for that. Good luck with your research. Have you written about it in your blog?
