Any morels yet?!

[snopro176]

Last year, I became aware that we have morels in the sierras here in CA and after finally finding some, I'm obsessed. I went to a fresh burn and found them on maybe a 200' section of east facing hillside, nowhere else in the burn but there. Have you guys noticed little nooks that are better at growing them than others? I did note the ground i found them in had more dark brown dirt than the red dirt that was prevalent to the area. Also, how soon are you finding them after the snows gone?

Some guys I know here in North Carolina have started finding a few. I haven't stumbled on any yet. Some wet and warmer weather on the way, should make a few start popping.

My spots are still covered in snow up in Washington... ☹

My dad found a few in Tennessee a couple days ago. Gonna check the spot again today since we had a little rain over the weekend

Too early in CO, at least in my parts. Might be some oysters soon though. They seem to show up a little earlier.

It's early here in KS but with the wet winter and spring and the warm weather recently, I'm going to start looking around my place this week. Should be a good year.

A few blacks here in Indiana but not enough to get excited about yet...

McCree how far south in IN are you finding them. I haven't found any yet but were a little far north.

It's still a little early here. Give it a week or two.

Found some at my spot here in Texas in late March, they were just starting to come up... 1st of April is usually Primo but I never got back to it.

Found a few here in SC yesterday.

Haven’t found any in West Michigan yet but still new at it. Probably another two or three weeks here though

I went out in central MI yesterday and thought the same. I'm new at it as well. Stuck my finger in the soil and it was mighty chilly...

Too cold, and another snow storm coming this week. Will be a while in Minnesota

It will be real good around Memorial Day in my neck of the Idaho woods. Picked and dried a heck of a lot last year. Really do well in areas that have seen logging and burns within a 5 year time frame. Lots of good scholarly research has been conducted on Morels.

 

[Crippledsledge64]

If anyone wants to tell me their spots I’d be happy to go and check for them.

What types of areas do you focus on to find them? I've got access to a bunch of river bottom property. What should I be looking for? I'm guessing the ticks will be in full force in the next week or so....treat clothes with permethrin?
