East Side Morels

Finally went east today. It was a beautiful day, but only an ok haul.

A few riparian morels

I've never really searched for morels under the cottonwoods. I've found a few so far this year. I'm hoping I'm just early. I found one that was growing from a log.

FInally got out this spring.

Found a few mushrooms to begin the Spring season. Mostly Verpa bohemica. The Ganoderma applanatum were on a huge cottonwood stump (Populus trichocarpa).

November in Brookings

We took a trip over to Brookings with my father. Found some really amazing mushrooms, including Black Trumpets (Craterellus cornicopiodes), which I had been looking forward to finding for quite some time. Also found Ramaria sp., Cantharellus formosus, Hydnum repandum, Craterellus tubaeformis, Clitocybe nuda, Hypomyces lactifluorum, and Pleurocybella porrigens. Not a bad day, but I think we can do better next time!
