Ishwish Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Been out everyday at new locations trying to find my first Morel, Maybe too much rain but this weekend will be warm so I'm still hopeful. Trying to stay local as I know I live near very good Morel habitat. Cottonwoods, Elms and a river near by... Lots of Verpa and Gyromitra. We've even had a few landscape Morels reported in Bonney Lake and Sumner so I know they are just a few weeks away... right?! haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adawg Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I usually find verpa early in the season along with or before the small blacks . Not sure if it is the same in your area, but could be the morels aren't far behind . Good luck ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitog Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 You should be getting morels already in Washington, if you look at low elevation sites. I found about 30 young to slightly over mature Black Morels today in some of my low elevation locations in southwestern British Columbia.

Ishwish Posted April 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Sumner is at 75' and I've scoured the logging roads and wildlife areas, it has been uncommonly wet and cold in the valley. I'm thinking of heading to the Issaquah lowlands this weekend to try my luck. Saw a few posts on Facebook about finds there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mushroom Whisperer Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I found a couple on Sunday, mixed in with Verpa bohemica, at 1900 feet. They were small, but I didn't have the heart to leave them in the scary woods... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
