Mostly the large white (probably brevipes) but many with a purplish tinge, too. <br />No porcini, though. I thought maybe I was too high up - maybe I'll wait a week and check those spots again. <br />CheersBrandennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5570890979467369384.post-56367254468838985662012-06-17T21:07:26.708-07:002012-06-17T21:07:26.708-07:00Branden - Mostly pine means you're probably on...Branden - Mostly pine means you're probably on south facing slopes.

I like reading about your mushroom finds, but it's driving me crazy!<br />I have had no luck finding spring porcini, and found a grand total of four morels this year. Today I went down 97 and drove up various forest service roads, like 7324<br />and 9716. Elevation where I was walking is about 4000. The trees are mostly pine.
