Daddy User_Name: A" Messagesgood garf,where has the year gone. It's about half over and I still have not pick a basket of morel's this year,there is always next year are maybe I'll go South,way South. I see we are in for more rain from the south and it could be some real down pour's. I think we are going to be wet all summer if there is a summer. I've lookup some of my old book's on weather from year's past and as fare back as 1976 when I started picking them funny one. That year was really wet all Summer long and the mushrooms didn't do so well but them funny ones did. I well be in troutlake puting up camp this weekend (sorry,there Rick ) and I do have the right to teach other's the right way and the wrong way and set up where I want to camp, besides the burnis two year's old and never have a good showing and it is wet this year and a good place to start a research plot User_Name: garf Messagescurly sue that is good to know ..... its rained now and the mushrooms were already drying out so i expect i will see some splash now in the more exposed mushrooms..... think i will chill today and go look wednesday ..... so today i split shakes , and make rails.... have fun picking ger User_Name: A" MessagesBy the time I get this down it well be after mednight and I would just like a word are too about my day before my time run's out. We (my son and I) went out for two hour's only and found around Six pound's and one nice bolete and not a worm could be found and them and we were down around 3'000ft. My son found 16 in one clump as I was taking the photos of a clump of nine and we did take some nice pic's but I need to down in the morning. I well be home for the night and then// Goodmorning to you all it is 1:am\\ go over to trout lake to find a camp site for my foray on the 9th. and with that said it time to get some User_Name: curly sue Messagesi believe splash is a shroom in a hotburn that is covered in ash from the rain pounding down. User_Name: garf Messageswildside that is what i wondered too ,,, but i look in my buckets and see no fluffies and i keep my shroomies covered when i am moving to keep down the debris so i am not familiar with that and don't intend to be.... lol the cotton maybe the naturals and the cottonwood trees fluffing ..... full buckets and i will be in the woodpile .... til the hoardes have gone home.... ger User_Name: wild side Messageswhat's cotton and splash? any thoughts on hitting a fire after year two? education and sharing knowledge is the way to a wiser future. also, squits love the color blue and your exhaust (co2)!, as most here probably know, building a smoke fire generally keeps squits/blackflie numbers to a managable level. safe travels to all. User_Name: Carla MessagesIn da kitchen like usual ..... Silly butt August! User_Name: Mike Gurica MessagesAre there any buyers in Kamloops? I don't want to go too far to sell. If so where do we meet to weigh my pickings and finalize our transaction? User_Name: Pickinpox MessagesI'll make ya some Yerba if ya just tell me where to meet ya! User_Name: A'' MessagesWHere iS My *&_(*^%@@ coFFeE_&*) cARLA User_Name: A" MessagesAround here when the Skiddens come out they always talk to each other and you can here them five miles away flying in low and say should we eat them here are take them home to eat later. the best bug repellent that one could use is, STAY AT HOME Tell the first frost comes. User_Name: curly sue Messagesjlb one in sorrento User_Name: Carla MessagesDang! Good thing I am staying home and gonna buy lobbies ;-) User_Name: jlb Messagesis there any buyers in the okanagan. I am looking for a buy in any of these places Pritchard, Chase, Kamloops, Falkland or Salmon. User_Name: kingmorel Messagesround here skidders and grizz like garlic ... ;) but that does work with the wood tics..... round here its dangerous to go for a pee... its important to learn most of the skidders get blown to one side of a lake!!!! and that skidders get verosious just before rain... the buzz of half a million skidders is deafening... and learn to buy northern made bug repellent.... and last but not least... when all goes quiet... the skidders are up to something... User_Name: Carla MessagesI am a lucky one, Skeeters hate my blood! It must be all the garlic I eat ;-) User_Name: kingmorel MessagesCo2..... ordering mine now...lol ..... bloody skidders will fly away with your mushrooms if your not watching.... They will carry them to some roadside to see how many other pickers they can get to stop and check ...then they sweep in like an airforce squadron. Some even hide inside the shrooms so when you take them inside your screened in room they come out to get ya.. they know you will be sitting back with a beer relaxing and feeling safe..... then they sneak attack.... those northern skidders are pretty danged smart. User_Name: A'' MessagesRandy, I well call you sometime today or Tonight!! " Are We Having Fun Yet " Randy:) on my way well call when I get there. User_Name: Lone Lobo Messages... I've seen them skeeters in the Laird river area down to Fort Nelson that could drain your blood overnight, but have never seen a skeeter in a morel before, must be a local thing, lol ............ now hoppy bugs can decimate a basket of black naturals very quickly or a warehouse full if not controlled with something such as nitrogen or Co2 User_Name: garf Messagesnot gone yet eh Randy?? when do you head out?? got a couple of buckets yesterday and the greys are definitely showing now.... some parts are still under snow.... gl ger User_Name: kingmorel MessagesA....... you better give me a ring soon... im lving here in less than a week.... lobo we got LOTS of skitters for ya to fill ur boots with.. and just about anything else you might want to fill ...lol Around here ya got to be carefull your buckets dont have too many skitters in them as after the buyer grades them out you might only get 2 lbs per bucket ;( ...... I think everyone must be loading up as its gone quiet on here.... User_Name: Daddy in Wa MessagesAugust, sure nice to catch up with you last night. John, sorry I didn't call you back, we ended up with a bit of a family emergency. Best. Daddy User_Name: A" MessagesWhere is the ground?Ineed to fall and I can't get to tha Morel's. Help me to fall down. Randy, how the hell are you. If I get some time, I well gave you a ring-a- dig dig on the land line. User_Name: A" MessagesYou are right about last year but this is a new year and it has been really wet so the saying gose like this, If not the first year then next year it well happen if there is a lot of wet ground and you may not see a true fire morel but the gray's well be there along with blones and if you recive ampoll amount of rain you just may find the pickel green morel's. And yes to the crow creek back in 2008. I have someone in Trout lake that has call me on this,so looking fourword to being there after the frist for my forayon the 11th of June, so keep your eye's open for a big camp site with alot of people and stop in and have some of Carla's mud Coffee.

User_Name: Alice in Morel Land MessagesHa there Randy, I am the KING of all Morel's and Lost Morel's and Mad Morels and Moon Morel's Sunny sun Morel's and Snow Morel's and frozen Morel's and Ice pop Morel's so you see I do have the market on all Morel's now who is the King.

User_Name: A" MessagesHelp' I can't fall to the ground well some one help me to the ground my back is out and I need to cut them Morel's on the ground! User_Name: lobo THE Lobo Messageskingmorel; I haven't seen any skeeters since leaving the SoCal patches back in early March, must be too high up right now ... except for the naturals coming up in the old Columbia Complex burn. I just dropped down off the mountain to a town with Library internet and will be headed out to check other patches in a few minutes. Would really enjoy coming up to Canada, I used to do research in BC until one day the border ruffians pocked their fingers in all my motor home food stashes etc for two hours because I had a photo of my former police attack dog with my mug visible. Finally they sent me to immigration and the guy there called the interrogators and said, "Why are you holding this man up, he is clean!" An hour or so later I was in Kelowna to visit a lady friend and then headed over to Nakusp. User_Name: CleElumGrl MessagesLots to say on illegal immigration isn't there! Whoo that stuff is irritating. No comment. User_Name: A" MessagesJust a line are two to say Hi ho to you all and ZiQuinn why don't you. I could help you pick them morels but then I would just like to eat them. I did going out this last weekend and found about three lb's in a old fire burn that i pick four years ago. Where is my coffee?. I PC is down and in need a new mother board to replace the burn out board and back is still giving me some hell but now it time to go north to pick a old burn near Canada. Well it's time to go so tell next time bucket's to you all and Zi call me or not?. Randy nice to see you up and around.......A" User_Name: Tacoma Kid MessagesThey don't always carry guns or even say anything, last year on a fire in Oregon, me and my friends were picking when over the hill came a group who out numbered us five to one and they didn't have any problem walking right up on us even picking by our buckets. They picked every thing above ground just like locust, and pretended that they didn't understand english or facial expressions, they just didn't care! User_Name: CleElumGrl MessagesWhat are the bullies you guys speak of and guns? Have not ran accross anything like that and would like a heads up? User_Name: ZiQuinn MessagesKing, I learned many years ago how to handle bullies. Just stare at them and show no emotions and do not speak to them. Just stare..... User_Name: kingmorel MessagesZiQuinn so many for get to live thier lives as they go along... Those crzy scum lickin low lifes are evrywhere indeed.. not just in the patches.. thing about bullies is most are cowards when pressed, but when you add drugs like meth you nvr know how they will react..... Thats when ya get on the phone " ring, ring, hey Gino I got a job for ya" One thing about getting older is you tend to bypass those issues as its takes more energy to hit them head on... possitive energy attracts possitive outcomes.. well now to go head on with a new flush of mosquitoes... have fun out there... User_Name: ZiQuinn MessagesCarla, I go with moderation. There are more nuts in the woods now than ever. When a weapon of any kind makes you feel bigger than the rest, you have a real social problem on your hands. However, thats where we are at.. It is just not here, its everywhere at least at some degree. Getting older has its advantage. I remember the past and loved it. what I have today is but evidence to the future. I love life and want to live it. Once again, however, I look forward to the most wondeful things the mind can imagine.. Love Ya... Uncle, Don User_Name: Carla MessagesHi Boletus Joe, I wish more people would take license plate numbers and report those gun toting butt heads that like to threaten other pickers... Nothing makes me madder than when one of the pickers come into the buy station upset over someone acting like a bully! User_Name: ZiQuinn MessagesFinally got a pound or so at the 4,800 ft level just below Chinook pass. They are just starting tho and are at just below snow level.. User_Name: kingmorel Messageshey BJ... its all good... ;) that fire i mentioned to you is looking beter all the time... im lv,n soon.... Lobo you should come kill some skitters with me!!! User_Name: Lone Lobo MessagesBoletus Joe; that is good news for your area, I was lucky yesterday to find a patch that had numerous recent forager tracks within 20 yards yet had been missed because the habitat did not match that in the area they were all looking at. ......... Currently the best pickers have been only averaging perhaps 5 pounds or less, I know good commercial pickers older than me who were raised here who are lucky to get a couple pounds of naturals. The loggers seem mostly to be waiting for some other year to flush and even blond naturals are showing up at buy stations, in my opinion that indicates a possible near end for the naturals here. ......... Wish we had a good burn close by but they are too small for the influx, like has been previously said the babies get torn from Mother prematurely. There are large blue-tarp camps growing in the forest which means more competition for the few available morels. It is doubtful that very many will ever reach maturity in the burn sites available here this year. User_Name: Boletus Joe MessagesWaiting for Sunday to depart..... What fun reading all the jibs & jabs here. I think Andy should open up another sight for Morel season. There are going to be so many shrooms out there buy next week, no one will have time to post here........ The lower south west corner should be reserved for all you mountain goats. Close to Vancouver easy to get at ....and it will get trashed I'm sure of that...... Sad but true..... every year is the same. Greed takes over, can't we just go out and ENJOY it for what it is..... and if you make a bit of pocket money that's great. Be thankful we have not got to the point of having a bunch of gun toting wanabeys invading our space."YET!" There are so many fires to look at, there is room for everyone. Interestingly, the farther north you go the more enjoyment you have.... G'day and g'picking. User_Name: Lone Lobo MessagesNo Squirms yet, the flush was just starting at that elevation but there were clusters. It is warming up quickly here in the LaGrande area and the worms will be out soon. Photos at: http://www.mushroomhunting.org/ / under the 2010 morels thread .... http://www.mushroomhunting.org/index.php?showforum=4 User_Name: kingmorel Messageslobo thats a good idea...lol hows the worms? User_Name: Lone Lobo Messageskingmorel; I could not find any natural blacks smaller than 2" today, bummer. I guess I shall need to do stuffed morels instead, lol User_Name: kingmorel Messagesmike... I have picked cottage grove area.... most first yr log blocks show morels but its a little late now. You will have to look at much higher elevation now. Best to head over to the other side of the Cascades..... look for fir to concentrate your efforts. User_Name: Daddy in Wa MessagesAugust, Shoot me an email if you can or call. I'll be in your neck of the woods end of the month, it would be cool to hunt again. Daddy in Wa coffeybusinessatmedotcom 253-970-7836 User_Name: CleElumGrl MessagesGoing over again, wish me luck. I am not sure where to look now. I only know above at high elevations and at low, nothing inbetween. User_Name: Boletus Joe MessagesAnyone have any input on the Kelly lake (Clinton) fire....?? A 2 hole basket will hold about 12-17 lbs. of morels depending on quality. Keep your stems white and short... no cotton and no splash. Good picking everyone. User_Name: Pickinpox MessagesThanx Bill,I always like to ask before heading out being as I live near Ocean Shores its quite a haul to get skunked.Does anyone know where the buyers are hiding at? User_Name: Bill in Blaine MessagesHi Pickinpox We picked about 12 morels Sunday and Monday in Chelan and Kittitas County's at 2200 ft. The Morels will be coming on strong in the next couple of weeks User_Name: clarity MessagesMike- I've never looked for mushrooms in the Cottage Grove area. However, as I understand it you are nearing the end of the season at lower elevations. You might still be able to find a few along the river under cottonwood trees. You also might want to check out some one year old clear cuts in the hills around that area. Other than that, its about time to start heading over to the other side of the Cascades. Its not hard to find at least a few over there if you are at the right elevation at the right time. Hope that helps you. I'm guessing that no one will tell you exactly where to look. User_Name: mike MessagesHI im new at hunting morel mushrooms and i live in cottage grove orgeon where would be goods spots to look other than fires around where i live thanks User_Name: mike MessagesHI im new at hunting morel mushrooms and i live in cottage grove orgeon where would be goods spots to look other than fires around where i live thanks User_Name: Rainbow Warrior MessagesGood day to all and a HAPPY one to all the moms. is there any buyers in the Lilloet / goldbiridge area??
