Temperature, humidity, rain and are all important factors. Temperature has been low enough for high altitude locations

I have checked all the fields near me - nothing, but get up into the peaks and they are well up, i found loads of fresh brown libs last month. The peaks are my favourite place for shrooms and what a great views too. I am going on a long walk (12 miles) soon to check a large area, most of the walk goes over farm land so i hope to find some new fields. The best field I know is right next to the road and also known to lots of other people who don't respect it and pick it to death- I always leave the little baby ones alone but I know plenty of people who will pick everything.
Nice find, Keep up the good work

Thats the problem, i live too far away from any peaks.......you lucky mountain dwellers............I here that in ireland they grow nearly all year round, but i aint interested in libs this year, i am after the gold, fly-agaric.............i dont know any spots but have some ideas too check........if you have any further info in the yorkshire area PM me.(any finds, etc) So this year i am going to bypass 10000`s of libs on purpose, in pursuit of my fave, fly-agaric. In the season time is preciouss, use it wisely, for the UK we have another year to wait.............

I know man, i know, i thought that is what people would think..............but i have too, i have to travel for a couple of days, on bike, past loads of fields to get to the fly-agarics, so i wont have time to collect them all and bring them all back, i dont care, i have a good number of local fields when i ever want any, it does seem like a waste though............

Still waiting for them to pop up. Although I'm in northern Europe daytime temperatures are still around 17-18 C and too little rain. I wish I had some high altitude in my neighbourhood... Nice pics!
