Dave,
It looks like this little guy made a nice log house for himself. It'll be good to see what Don or John Burger say about this once I get it up to them.

Limnephilidae
I have been looking at this one for awhile now and just can't come up with a good recommendation. The case looks like some of the Pycnopsyche and Anabolia but the head pattern does not. The head pattern could be that of some of the Limnephilus but what I can see of the leg setae argues otherwise. It will be good to see what Don or others decide once they have the critter in hand.
