Has anyone located chants yet?!?!

I've been finding chanterelles and trumpets for about a week now in NWCT. I'll hit the forest good tomorrow and hopefully bring home a nice sackful. Any other CT shroomers out there?

Well the 2017 year was not one to write home about in my opinion! I put in many miles and it seemed like the shrooms were spotty. Seemed like the rain and warm weather was right on track so I'm not sure what the cause was. I'm thinking some of the early warm weather in Feb. may have played a role. Either way I went out this past weekend and found this mess (see pic). I left lots of mushrooms in the ground as they were dried up, and what I did find was on the late Northern slopes. I logged quite a few miles this year without the usual production. Even my honey holes only produced minimal amounts. Again I was let down in 2017 as far as overall finds are concerned! Wbu?

Morels - pre season, season, and thoughts. If you have morels for sale contact me!

Good story by Dave Ode the GFP Botanist in the SoDak Conservation Digest, Jan/Feb 2013 edition on two oyster mushroom species on Boxelder trees. We find yellow morels under Boxelder in far west river as they are one of our few "maple" trees out this way. Most of our oyster mushrooms are found on Aspen and Cottonwood and should pop by Mother's Day.
