Rachel did not approve this music 🤙😜
Nice job on the edit Zach!
Good thing Zach, she probably would have picked something with banjos, LOL! I will give her a very big high five for picking up that trash, good job Rachel. That would be incredible if the mushroom you two found was a new species............Agaricus Rachelus.
Steve thanks!
Banjos! Haha...
@@YellowElanor nothing wrong with banjos here in Appalachian Country! lol
Hellow Yellow, I get excited that way when I catch a fish species I have never caught before, or sometimes even ever heard of. I am glad you got to have fun finding new mushrooms. A short story, once while I was living up in Virginia in the mountains, I stopped on my way home and went fishing for a couple of trout for my supper...when I climbed down to the river from where I parked, I found a big pile of beer cans and other trash. Well, an old friend of mine once said, " There aint nothin so dirty it cant be cleaned...", and she was right. I went up to my truck, got a couple of garbage bags and went back down and cleaned up the river bank. I caught two trout, just like I had hoped, and to my smiling amazement, a full can of beer came twirling in the current, down the edge of the river, swirled in behind the big boulder I liked to fish from and I reached down and said to the river, Thank you! That was a really cool day. I like your joyful way. Smiling, George.
Those found beers are like the found mushrooms; somehow, they just seem to taste better than the store-bought variety!
My father and I found nearly a case of 16oz Coors--looked as though forgotten and left behind by kids' drinking party out in a rural area (well, it was rural back then)--more than fifty years ago when we pulled into the gully mouth to hunt rabbits at first light. I savor the memory even more than I did the brews.
Can't wait to hear what you find out about that beautiful mushroom! Also, it made my heart smile to see you clean that mess up. 💕 A lot of people would have just left it since they didn't create it. That says a lot about your character. Truly love watching your videos.
Thank you so much!
I moved to North Carolina about 1 year ago and started foraging for mushrooms after finding my first Morel.
Rachel has become my new hero.
I love her enthusiasm and knowledge.
At the ranger station when you buy your commercial permit they provide a bag to put trash in. Still there's sooo much trash out there! Drives me nuts. I especially like collecting the fanta cans and empty cigerette boxes marking matsi patches. I take the marker and mark a gps waypoint. Thanks for the patch trash leaver.
Didn't know that about the trash bags! Also, that's likely the saddest but also most practical advice in looking for new Matsi patches.
Do update us when you ID that shroom please!
Compare with gymnopilus junonius
@Nick alexander true. Probably cortinarius
Cortinarius armillatus?
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience. I live above White Salmon, Wa, and love taking off into the woods to check out what's happening in the forest. I love that you're local too and appreciate everything our beautiful area has to offer while still respecting how precious it is. Can't wait for more of your videos!!
Hi there neighbor! Glad you like the videos so much!
Thank you for all that you both do. After 2 years, did you identify that specimen yet? Newbie to your channel here. Subscribed! 3rd or 4th video so far. I love the duration of your videos! It makes 4hrs of dialysis breeze by and I'm taking notes the whole time! You guys are a great team. You guys must be grateful to be able to have that type of relationship with your siblings!
That tip to photo doc the shroom in the field has been quite helpful towards ID efforts, TY!
Just wanted to say I appreciate you picking up after others. I do the same thing. Makes me sad that people don't care and leave things behind. Thank you.
I carry a plastic grocery bag just for this purpose. Seem to find trash everywhere. Sorry to say more trash than mushrooms...
It's always sad to see the big trees go. I hope there are some other large ones nearby. At least the Acorn woodpeckers will enjoy that tree for awhile! For your unknown mushroom, I'll go with the Chroogomphus pseudovinicolor. Nice find! It will be a nice addition to iNaturalist! ; )
Oh yes, the woodpeckers have been loving it so far. I'll be adding it to iNatrualist soon!
I couldn't find the follow up video on the identification of that interesting mushroom that you found by the fire pit
Write in the rain pencils or space pens! Sharpies are good but can bleed through paper bad. :)
So happy your back!! love your videos and all the information you share, I learn something new everytime. That is a beautiful Chroogomphus species you found, even with your extensive foraging experience you still find new mushrooms, it really takes your breath away!! This is what keeps us going on these treasure hunts through the forests, searching for the unknown. I'm sure you have figured out the exact species of Chroogomphus and I was wondering if you would share the ID with us? Cheers
- Colin
I'd guess Rutilus /Copper Spike...
Thumbs up for the clean up ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
Love the content! I really appreciate you going over nonedibles in this video, much more educational than some other mushroom channels.
Thank you, I really appreciate hearing that. It's not always about what you can eat...but that's usually what people want to watch a video about-I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for your video! I've noticed some kind of bluish/discolored area around the giant dying pine-tree and I remember reading that it is a sign that the trees might be infected with the honey fungus (Armillaria mellea). Though it is not visible at the moment, there might be a really good harvest on this tree. You might want to check it out next year.
I didn't catch your last two videos, I'm glad you're back!!!
I didn't just like this video, I loved it! You always seem to have a extremely animated and enthusiastic presentation. The part about the The mention a citizen scientist really struck home with me. And thanks for writing your notes on location, description, Etc. I'm a novice just starting out & these tips are very very helpful - love the Sharpie point and I'm glad to see you too carry a brown paper bag.
Thank you so much! I really want to do more episodes that focus on citizen science.
I found the same thing a little west of your location. The one I found really resembles a Boletus and is a real hearty mushroom. I had to bring it home.
Cool find, hope your able to identify! I'm in southern Oregon on the coast and so far this year it's been unusually dry, not so good for the fungi foraging. Thanks for another great video!
Very dry this year! And I did find an ID :) I'll share on another episode.
I love the way share your enthusiasm for nature and fungi in particular combined with your meticulous scientific recording skills. You could be a trained forensic scientist. In this video you are using one of my all time favourite baskets.. I live in the UK and have only seen those baskets for sale in France where I regularly buy them. So cool the way that when they arrive from Burkina Faso they have to be saturated with water before they can be coaxed into their final shape. The talk about altitude makes me smile as the highest mountain in England is Scafell Pike at only 3215 ft. I went for my first fungal forage of the season yesterday around the edge of Dartmoor, Devon and found a good few chanterelles, hedgehog mushrooms, horse mushrooms and a few shaggy parasols. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
Please! 🙏🏼 For season 2 do a video on the Amanita Muscaria! 🍄🍄🍄 There’s so much ignorance around it, that its poisonous and you cannot eat it. The shaman would use this medicinally and I feel it maybe much more important than we know. I always learn so much from your videos, like today the elevation talk was interesting & I was also excited for you to find something new and undiscovered for yourself. I am happy to be able to catch you “live” for season 2 where just weeks ago I was watching all your 4 year old videos wishing you were still active, not even dreaming that you would return after that long! It was upsetting finding someone I enjoyed watching but thinking that you must have lost interest or something.... And then you came back online! It was very exciting to be here for that!
Ah yes, the A muscaria has a rich and beautiful history. Likely it would be a longer featured episode where I dive deeper with a few guests to also speak on the matter. I want to do it justice, in other words.
Yellow Elanor 💛 I understand, well that would be cool, and I’ll look forward to that exciting episode. 🍄 Maybe that guy Adam from know your land would collab with you since I saw you post in your stories a bunch of people asking you to make that happen, anyhow I don’t think he has done that mushroom either...but that would be cool, between you and him you guys were the first people I started watching on TH-cam for mushroom information. Anyhow thanks for reading & responding 🙏🏼 I look forward to whatever you put out next!!! Much love to you! 😘❤️
@@deathmedicaldave4823 I love Adam Haritan. It is through his channel that I stumbled upon this channel. Now I follow both Adam and Yellow Elanor religiously. Mushroom power!
ChaosZin 🍄 i agree!! ☺️
Another awesome upload! My favorite video series on TH-cam
Thank you so much!
Chroogomphus pseudovinicolor
Solid ID. I concur 👍🏼
A camper may have had some exotic species on a sandwich and dropped a couple caps, just happened to be compatible with the substrate/environment there. Just a guess
Elanor, i love your videos! i love to forage, im a chef, you are amazing! you cover all the bases, and are very informative, plus you guys have a great sense of humour! keep up the great educational work....looking forward to the next video. suggestion: even if its off season...videos that educate on propagation of common edibles, or info on spore prints might be helpful too. since winter is a good time to research more. hugs!
Hi there! Thanks for the encouraging words! We plan on doing some more informative type videos like that during the off season, you're absolutely right about winter being a great research time!
man this makes me want to know and watch more. I want to go out there and start logging! This seams so fun.
I'm not fungi expert but I'd highly suggest looking in opal creek for these because I swear I've seen these up there
Luv your videos. Very cool. Keep hunting . I clean the woods as I go also.
Definitely more organised than I am. I've only found one potentially undescribed mushroom. I didn't take any pictures, just assumed I had a good idea what genus it would be, which I didn't, assumed it would be a quick and simple google search like normal, and I'd have a name. I was definitely overly lax about it. It just sat on my bedside table until it went moldy, and now I'm only left with a valuable lesson and regret.
Not something I bring up often as I'm no mycologist by any means, and I don't think people realise how few fungi are known to science, so I don't wanna sound presumptuous to the layperson by explaining i may have found something new. Also it sounds worse when you literally have no proof.
Out of curiosity, where would you send a specimen for identification if you thought you found something new? Would be good to know for next time.
Oh bummer, photos are so helpful!
Connect with your local Mycological Society. They'll know the best place to send things locally or will have someone in house who does things like that. Also, check to see if there is a Mycoflora project in your area, mycoflora.org.
Elevation: tree and shrub species info very useful.
that was fun, thanks for the lessons and meeting and old giant friend
Thank you, and you're welcome ☺️
Another awesome video. Please normalize the sounds though. I think it got way louder around 10mins in. Unless it was something with my streaming connection.
I'll pass that along to my little brother who deals with that ;)
I'm really digging your blue bennie.
Thank you, I borrowed it from my mom...about three years ago ☺️
If you're looking for a good pen that writes in rain, try the Uni-Ball Powertank. Pressurized Ink. I work outdoors and these are all I use :)
It would have been interesting if you had taken a soil sample from the exact spot the mushroom came from and to see what the soil results were.
That mushroom looks a little like that one GILLED Bolete species.There is one that doesn’t have pores ?
this fall was a very strange one in washington. long dry summer and atypical fruiting. i found golden chants in november.
Those big dead tree fungi are great for making paintings on ...
Your the best wish I had some one to explore with lucky you for your brother! Another great vid
Thanks so much!
Brilliant video as always
Now THAT is a Pine tree.
Thanks, very informative!
Thanks!
Love these videos! Always have been interested in mushrooms, have some books and hunt for them sometimes but always for the same species. Makes me want to identify more:)
Yeah! Time to branch out and try your hand at identifying a few new things.
Love your passion. Your hubs is pretty good on the camera! That mushroom has me stumped too.
My brother is the cameraman 😳
But, he is pretty awesome at what he does with the filming and editing!
Love your enthusiasm and your picking up after others💝. Please don't keep us in suspense on the positive ID of your new find. Happy Hunting
These are my favourite videos
Thanks!
Thank you Elanor
Happy New Year
Much happiness to you and yours
Thank you very much!
I believe Chroogomphus might be the genus of that mystery mushroom.
I think she agrees, here's the mushroom observer post they submitted for these specimens! mushroomobserver.org/observer/show_observation/339677
Elevation tips are sooooo helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Just a thought. Regarding surrounding soil ph levels, would it be useful to take a soil sample from around the mushroom, perhaps including some of the mycelium, to take home and examine further? Maybe measure the ph when you get home?
So love your relaxed style yet with exuberant enthusiasm. Makes me want to join you on a stroll. Anyway...seems the mushroom was never positively identified, so I wanted to throw in a guess. Based on the videos and pic plus the fact that you mentioned the grayish green spores, leads me to believe this is the Chroogomphus vinicolor. The dark-brown cap, gills and stipe (you mentioned their might be a partial veil too that left sign high up on the stipe) all lead to this identification. What did you determine after you research?
I love this channel, you're gonna be huge
Thank you :)
Great Vids just started will go thru all, fond memories of sister & me 6&7 old sent out into the woods after rains by Grandma to pick Morels, sliced breaded salted pepper flour fried Yum
Perhaps a Clitocybe nuda, aka Lepista nuda. I always loved the purple shaggy/velvety ones. Nice find whatever it is and great vid! In the shot at 11:50, you look so pretty, all elated with your new fungi friend! :D
Happy you guys are back.
Haha, thank you!
Not Lepista nuda...there wouldn't be a little veil on a Blewit-but good thought with the purple-ish colorations.
Do you have a Facebook page dedicated to hunting mushrooms of the PNW?? You have amazing and very informative videos ☺️🍄
Hey I found a black bark mushroom that I can’t ID. Anyway you can help?
that giant tree is amazing
Great video! Loved that Rachel picked up the leftover junk-- you both are good people! So, what's the verdict on the mystery mushroom??
awesome video!! Could you please share where you got your camera lenses from?
It's made by Olloclip, I use the 3 in 1 macro lens. Be careful not to buy one from third party sellers, some friends of mine have received knock offs that fall apart easily. I love using it!
“Nice stick” made me lol! I’m getting you a Hori Hori for Christmas.
Hello did you come up with an ID ??? It’s November 28.20 and still finding lots of fresh Mushrooms
I always wondered if people, or animals peeing in an area, played a factor in the different types of mushrooms that would grow in that area.
I know...I'm strange.
Not sure about that one...but moisture could definitely be a factor with it, haha.
Curious what you found there...beautiful ❤️
the anticipation! you have to do an episode when you identify
I will :)
thanks again
Thanks!
We should talk about a collaboration soon!
I'm subscribed to both your channels and I highly approve of this collaboration!!!
Yes! I think we'd have fun (and make some great content) together!
Do you do any mashrooms cultivation?
Could it possibly be a big gym (like Gymnopilus luteofolius)? a ramdom guess as we just encountered our first gym last month! BTW, great content as always!
I thought a big gym possibly
I also thought it was a gym
Love your channel also “Old Man!”
Old Man of the Woods same as laughing Jim?
Did you ever find out what type of mushroom was next to the firepit?
Thank you 🌹
You're welcome :)
Those were beautiful mushroom specimens what did they turn out to be?
Seems like a good hunt been coming across some new shrooms myself over here in
Nh
Cool!
that kinda looks like a wood bluet..my first glance said some kind of "stropharia".. but after seeing your mushroom bluet.. any sign of web ?
So cool
Thanks!
I’ve started bringing a plastic bag with me on hikes for collecting garbage :(
There is not enough girl like you in this world... I mean wow! Beautiful, intelligent, funny and outdoor loving with a taste for nature foraging. Elanor you are close to the perfect girl. Keep up the good content.
please let us know the color of the spore print.
It ended up being dark greyish green :)
@@YellowElanor That's one potent gym
@@YellowElanor Did you ID the mushroom yet? I can safely say, I have never seen that mushroom here in Pennsylvania. Did you do a KOH test on the cap or gills, any color change? Do you have a microscope? What is the size and shape of the spores? I need more info. :) please :)
What’s the name of macro lens u use ? Link? Love ur stuff
The unknown mushrooms might be pholiota carbonaria. I've just seen similar ones on Facebook, they grew in Israel, in the pines and the forest has been burning before.
I thought the mystery mushroom was a Boulet, but it might be a blue footed mushroom instead.
Bouletes have pores not gills
Johnny Dalton you’re right. It might actually be a verity of blue foot mushroom instead. At least that the closest I can find that looks like it.
Someone else guessed that as well, but it doesn't quite have all the same characteristics!
Johnny Dalton there’s one Boletus that IS gilled,and,I’m thinking that’s what that mysterious mushroom is......
great video! please let us know if u find out what it is
Will do! (and I did, but I'll save that for another episode)
Hello from SC
Hello from WA
Sei fantastica 😊😉👍👍👍👍un saluto dall Italia 👋👋🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
final id?
Cool find.
looks like Chroogomphus ochraceus to me
Oh my gawd! What a huge tree! And what a huge unidentified mushroom you found! R u a scientist, Yelanor? (WTF!? Somebody made a camp there & left all that garbage in the woods!? Doesn't surprise me at all but ALWAYS disappoints me in my fellow non-Boy Scout men: Pack OUT what you Pack IN! Plain & simple. No harder than the effort to chuck your 84 oz plastic convenience store pop out the window with your Mickie D's burger box, etc. And Jesus wept...
What was this mushroom!? I must know !
We’re in the north West you are? Close to mount hood?
We're in the wood! 😉
I'm in SW Washington, so not too terribly far from Mt. Hood. But some videos may be from other parts of the PNW.
how the hell do mushrooms know what elevation they are at??
Sunset mushrooms its yours you name it
Your awesome as well
Reminds me of a blewit
That looks like a gymnopilus
Gymnopilus Species maybe?
It looks like a gymnopilus of sorts.
Did you find out that kind of mushroom that was?
Chroogomphus pseudovinicolor?
