Morel report?
« on: April 29, 2020, 05:18:39 PM »
I'm going out this weekend or  looking for the elusive Morel. I'll be out on the eastern slope off I-90 or hwy2. Is anyone seeing any shrooms between Easton and E-burg or between Lake Wenatchee and Leavenworth?

Went out today. SLOW.

We need a bit more moisture and some warmer evenings. Hiked for 3 hours to find a dozen or so. Beautiful day to be out tho!

What I really want to know....where are the damn sheds? Spent years learning mushrooms and close to the same amount of time looking for elk sheds and never found a damn thing!

Good luck and be 100% on your ID, Gyromitra are out in abundance.

If you know the nile very well, send me a message.

Also check the  burn scar up back up clear lake from 2018 and the burn scar that's north of 410 from 17. Lower elevations in both those areas should start seeing morels pop up between now and mothers days and continue into the higher elevations through second week of June.

Key word is disturbance.... windthrow, logging, last falls prescribed fires....

Thanks for the feedback. It sounds like another week is well advised. Ditto jdb, I hammer the Chanterelle's most years, but I have about three Morels to show for two or three years of (passive) looking.

Perhaps you just need to have a few more "sharp eyed Kids" (Sworn to Secrecy) tagging along. :IBCOOL:

We’re you out on the wet side?? What elevation? I still have had no luck yet in the past 2 years found a couple true morels (what I was told) huge morels 3 years ago!
