Awesome ! what do you think the snow and mid 20* temps next couple days will do to the mushrooms ?
I have seen a couple of times where we found them in a snow sticking up in it after they had come up befor it snowed. It’s going to get really warm beginning next Monday so you should be good to go on finding them after it warms as snow will just add moisture to the ground. Moisture and humidity with warm nights seems to make a good morel season.Quote:

Elm, poplar, sycamore sometimes, fruit orchards, ash,,and the loss of our ash is a trendies loss where shrooms one up around. Sometimes a combination of larger sassafras combined with larger trees might produce certain types. I sometimes find them in a pine thicket near my house. Makes no sense sometimes where they come up. Northern slopes of ridges near the crown of the peaks will hold more moisture and minerals in soils than other east west southern slopes. I seldom if ever find mushrooms in white oak groves of woods. Old growth forests are best as once woods have timber harvested out of them it changes the woods for mushrooms to come up however,,,if you hunt where shrooms have come up where timber was cut the very first year,,,the sunlight might produce an abundance the first year and then none after that. Around me, most of the woods has seen timber harvest the last number of years and it’s ruined the hunting where I used to find them. State parks old growth woods if you get there first are great spots to hunt. My nephew has a lawn mowing service and he sometimes finds them mowing grass in cemeteries and peoples lawns depending on the trees growing in places. Mushrooms are where you find them.
