Morels, morel, morels
While we had snow on Monday, and rain and thunderstorms everyday since, we went out tonight and found about 100 morels in about 2 hours. Of course, no camera, but there were some BIG ones! Lots of other fungi around, tricholoma sapinaceua? hygrophorus subalpinus, two cool brown topped yellow gilled one with very fat stipes...they weren't really open yet, so I can't get a spore print. They looked like a boletus edulis with gills! Anyway, it is a fungi convention up here, so come on up if you get a chance! Sue

Sue, I'm new to the club - where is "up here?" =) My parents and I will be heading up to our usual morel hunting grounds soon, but of course I'm always interested in new areas. (It also helps for timing if we can compare known morel find elevation/weather to "our" area.) Thanks! Krista W.
ReplyDeleteWe live in Cambridge, up Highway 71. They are showing about 3500-4200 feet elevation here. Oysters are popping up everywhere also.
