2011 SIMA Mushroom Identification Class Trip to Idaho City

This is the group of 2011 SIMA Mushroom Class members who went on the field trip to Idaho City May 7.

We met in thee parking lot near Tully's Coffee Shop in the Albertson's Shopping Center at the intersection of Federal Way and Gowen Rd. The rain held off and we found lots of "snowbank" mushrooms, but no morels.



This is Jim Tamarelli's tailgate displaying a sample of what we found.
First half of the tailgate.






This is the rest of the spoils on the tailgate











The last shot is the release of water from Lucky Peak's original spill way known as "The Rooster Tail"

There are 3 openings. The middle one shoots the farest, but since it sprays large amounts of water on the road creating a hazard to drivers, it is no longer used.

Some of us do remember when it was though. What a sight! This very spectacular with out the middle hole going!
