Want to find mushshrooms in your area? Good! First,you have to find a field right? Right! How do you do this? Internet! Internet? yes, Internet! If you know the name of the county you live in-duh-you can find any and all properties in said county,legally!Free! how do you know? They have maps! Not only just the regular maps but also they have arial maps that show shots of the area that you are looking at-You can even zoom in and you can spot the cattle,or horses(hard to make out the difference-black & white & fuzzy close up)but you can find those fields. whoa,hang on,I'm not suggesting or reccomending that anyone go out and commit a crime(trespassing etc..) You can also look on those maps and they will tell you every piece of info you need(owners name,address,parcel #,acreage-etc,etc,etc...) find their phone # (local phone directory)call them up and ask them if they will allow you to do a mycological study blah blah blah... I bet if you tried hard enough you could get one owner to maybe let you have a family outing on such fine property as theirs so you can admire what is thiers(respect)-it worked for me! If I am allowed to I'll post a link to my county site to show you guy's what I'm talking about! I think its awesome-I used this method to find every cube I have found this year(not the cubes themselves-I did work a little!-but the fields themselves! If I'm not mistaken every county in America has this! You can even see the top of your house! Can I get a "woot,woot"? just thought I would share this-

I use the USGS National Map Server to find possible morel hotspots. I use it mostly to scan National Forest land and State Parks. The USGS maps use infrared land cover, so I can find exactly what I need: wooded wetlands.

hehe, good idea mj anyone have a helicopter we can borrow? I've never flown before but I'll be careful with it http://terraserver-usa.com/ might be useful for finding fields, but it doesn't have the property info and stuff mentioned in the first post. The maps are a few years old too. DH

The maps I speak of you can easily identify cars,trees,cows,horses,and yes even yourself,if you were standing outside of your home at the time the pics are taken-not regular maps.

Clear cuts rund thirty miles into the forests sometimes. They are hugh. Last year @cro and I were picking pelliculosas in the clearcuts and we saw a helicopter dumping chemicals over the clear cuts somewhere.
They spreay and some areas witll have warning signs so people do not go into the logging roads.
Noise is no problem. We follow a h8ighway and see which clearcuts are new (2-3 years old. There the pelliculosas will grow after the burn.
by the hundreds of thousands.

You haven't seen them in their habitat. They grow throughtout the logging clear cuts for three years or so after the burn.
In veins where the pi-lons and loggs are hauled out, on the bull-dozed regions of the clearcuts.
Here is just a bad image of a few.
And here are two examples of shrooms. This is in Kingston, Washington from a trip by me and Roadkill and his sion.
The shrooms here are Galerina autumnalis buyt the thousands.
If I go five feet to the left or tot he right and turn the same thing, wall to wall on every bull-doze trail in the clear cuts.
Well the P. pelliculosa also grows this very same way.
HEre are two clearcut images of the Galerinas. This represents an overview of the habitat.
Me and the habitat for P. pelliculosa
And one more of the Pelliculosa
