Found my first morels of the season today..
    #14260590 - 04/08/11 08:36 PM (12 years, 10 months ago)

So I found this spot last fall, its a local spot here in town that they are doing a habitat resteration on. Last fall they spread a ton of hardwood chips around all of the habitat they planted new trees in. This area used to be riparian habitat though, so I had a hunch to go check it out today..
So I noticed these Peziza all around when I first walked into the area.






And I know that these are sometimes an indicator species for morels, and then BAM!! I saw a few, and then a few more.









I believe morel season just started here in the PNW lowlands, im at 200ft.. I only found about 10 today, but its just getting started here...More pics to come in a few days.

I know that feeling dude, I hunted for a few years when I first started hunting for morels to no avail.... And then 3 years ago I started finding them finally. Now I know why they are so expensive..lol

I'd say it's summer weather here, but there's not been a drop of rain in well over a week. :frown:

So I went back today to this same spot to see if there was more, and I found some. It seems they are getting larger now, and no signs of slowing down yet, today I found more than in the last few weeks.
I also found these turkey tails aswell along the way..







Here is the habitat that im finding these morels in, they are growing scatterd all around in the woodchips.

stuff those babies with your favorite cheese and broil.  but don't put too much; morels shrink and then the cheese squeezes out the holes.  yumm!!! morel poppers.

Im still finding them, but I think in a few weeks im going to have to leave town, and go up around 1000ft.. They are slowing down a bit now here at just above sea level, not as big, but still finding them in town none the less.. found some more at this same spot again today...





I took this pic to show that they love to grow  closebye these Peziza..



Here are some more that got simi scorched by the recent sun..





Here is a grey one..



Here are my faves of the day, they are almost all the way dried already..



These are the smaller ones here, I feel bad for picking some of these small ones, but If I dont they might have shrivled up to a black crisp by the middle of this week...lol
