I'm going to be in Gatlinburg for 4 or 5 days around July 7-10th. Also taking a day trip to Asheville. I've read the regulations on picking mushrooms in GSM national park.
Does anybody here have any tips they can share as far as what all edible species I should expect to find, general areas in or outside the park, elevations I should stick to? I do not want your proven honey holes or anything, just some general tips. Like can I expect to find chanterelles in Cades Cove or would there be too much activity there? Stuff like that.
Also, I have no itinerary, so I could drive a couple hours any day I'm there to hunt other parks in western North Carolina, etc.
Thanks for any help you guys can give,
Lee
