Well Fall is almost over and I have been on the trail sence september looking for edible mushrooms in the cascade mountains.
my success has been rather good for the lil delights. most of my explorations are on Mt Hood and Mt Adams, both extinct volcaneos, perfect habitat for mushroom colonies.
here are some examples

Mt Adams and Takalahk Lake - Washington
