I poked around 3 different weekends 2 weeks apart last year and didnt see nearly as many as there were the year after the burn. I only found some on one weekend. They still made a good soup but we didnt find anywhere near the same volume as the year before.

Thanks!  That saves me a lot of driving.

Hit some of our higher elevation spots today, did fairly well. Lots of good sized ones.  One thing we did notice is that quite a few were boogered up on the top half....guessing they sprung out too early, then got frozen a bit.

Were the tops bitten off? If so, it could be deer or elk eating the tops which is not unusual.

Nope. Tops were intact, just shrunk in/shriveled up, rest of shroom was in excellent condition. Of the 300 we found, a good quarter of them were like that.

Found some better sized ones last weekend at roughly the same elevations. The recent moisture has sure helped. Still no big patches though.
