I think the obvious thing is to just be aware of your surroundings. I was in the mountains. Fields but no crops for pesticide run off. No livestock to die in the water or contaminate with waste. Further downstream would be more cause for concern.

Both my parents caught it after collecting water from a spring in a rural town. Swampy water was above the spring. I bet the backcountry streams are fine. Carrying a lot of water is painful too.
