'One of the best places in the world to find large amounts of mushrooms'
    #18912354 - 09/30/13 06:00 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

EUGENE, Ore. - Whether on the dark side of a stump or down in the dank duff beneath the pines, mushrooms are on the grow in Oregon.

"It's one of the best places in the world to find large amounts of mushrooms that are edible," said mushroom hunter Sean Prive.

Some people hunt mushrooms for fun.

"Other people do it for money," Prive said. "It can be an alternative to the logging industry."

The state is home to a billion-dollar commercial matsutake mushroom business. Hunters can make up to $800 per pound.

"You can't get the information out of them - where they found what they found," Prive said. "These people want to know they have a spot no one knows about, where these mushrooms grow."

But dedication comes with a price: Mushroom hunters can spend hours in the forest, and it's easy to get lost.

That's why Lane County Search and Rescue crews have some precautions they want the public  to take before heading out into the woods.

"Bring your gear, tell someone where you are going," said John Miller with the Lane County Sheriff's Office. "Take a signal device like a whistle."

On Saturday, a mushroom hunter went missing in the Coburg Hills but was later found.

"In years past, we have had folks who have perished out there because they were picking mushrooms and they've gotten lost," Miller said.

Learn More About Mushrooms: The Mushroom Festival at Mount Pisgah Arboretum is October 27 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

They parished while hunting edible mushrooms... either their dumb or really needed a few extra bucks to pay a ransom for a cat or some shit.

*perished
*they're

You might want to become literate before you go throwing "dumb" around.
Off the pavement, and out in the wild is dangerous up here. Make no mistake of that.  People come here/go out in the woods here to basically die because they underestimate the wilds and overestimate their wilderness ability.

Spelling is an extension of speech, it has absolutely nothing to do with intelligence, nor common sense, nor how well a person can handle themselves in the wild, nor does it have to do with analysis of a situation or event.


You sound ignorant, and a shining example of using the fundamental attribution error

You also sound ignorant for assuming someone is illiterate when you don't know if its the persons first or 10th language they learned (and knowing more then one language also doesn't mean you any smarter then anyone)

Your just an asshole for making more assumption off nothing. 

You also make the mistake of thinking that I know nothing of the woods, when it could be a fact that I lived there all my life or I could be from the city. People need etiz stop assuming unless they have a valid hypothesis.
