On page 85 of Fred Case's book "Orchids of the Western Great Lakes Region" he has a caution at the top of the page warning of exactly this. I personally don't have a sensitivity to them (I've taken pictures of them in-situ) but find it a good idea to carry Fels Napha soap with me when visiting the bog as poison sumac grows there as well. When you're getting stuck in the muck you'll grab on to anything!
Keep up the good work with the excellent photos, Dot!
