[Strange Bear]

I will usually wear supplex nylon pants that I bought from Land's End years ago. They wear like iron, I snagged on pair with a saw and there is barely a hole. Cooler than jeans but then I am sure that Indiana is a little cooler than wear you live. I am not sure where to get any now though, maybe try some of the camping, backpacking sources. Good Luck
P.S. I also don't have to worry about snakes here, just ticks.
