Rare flat area in the Storrie burn (Lynn Morton) |
|
 |
Scouting on Friday for the Saturday foray (Jeanne Porcini & David Campbell) |
|
 |
Geopyxis carbonaria grows in the same habitat as burn morels |
|
 |
We are too early...the few morels found are small |
|
 |
Lynn Morton would be even happier if morels would show! |
|
 |
What NOT to wear on a mushroom foray (a mushroom T-shirt worn by Mike Boom) |
|
 |
Stuck again...we often encounter impassable snow on the way to morel sites |
|
 |
Digging out before the group turns around or foiled by snow again! |
|
 |
Now where do we go? (David Campbell, Steve Warner, Norm Andresen) |
|
 |
Mike Boom up the hill for morels |
|
 |
If you don't find morels, find somthing else (Jane Wardzinska with Ramaria) |
|
 |
David Campbell ponders the paucity of morels on this foray |
|
 |
Snow Plants (Sarcodes sanguinea) fruit at the same time as morels and are mycorrhizal with pines and Rhizopogon |
|
 |
Leave the small ones to become big ones...don't be a morel molester! |
|
 |
Roughing it MSSF style...one of two kitchens set up for the foray |
|
 |
Good food, good conversation, and good wine are always part of a great foray |
|
 |
It must be breakfast...I see orange juice, not wine! (Terri Beausejour and Norm Andresen) |
|
 |
Some of this should have been tossed MANY forays ago! (Now who do you know that would carry cans like these?) |
