- Alaska has big wildfires every year. It’s no secret that morel mushrooms come up in large numbers the year following a wildfire, but what do you look for in a burn area to know you are in the right spot? Here are some of the secrets we have found to make for a successful find. Come with us on our best day yet and see how to find the elusive and delicious morel mushroom. #HowtoAlaska
Check out the video of finding morels outside of a burn area • Alaska Morel Secrets |...
That was an awesome mushroom picking adventure.
Yes it was, Beth is now addicted.
Thank you so much for this! You have a beautiful family and are teaching them invaluable skills!
That was a great video, I love the excitement in everyone's voices "There's one! Oh! Another one!" Hope you guys come back next spring and pick again.
They remind me of Naturel Sponges. I Live & go Mushroom Hunting in BONNIE Scotland! Glad i found your Channel.
Ill be there in late August those would go great with some Salmon!
Use to pick with my grandparents brought back memories thank ya awesome
That was great! Morels! Yumm!
Wow this is awesome! Maybe one of these days y’all can make a video on how you prepare these mushrooms and do a day in a life. 😊
Nice man...
Hi ... last 3 days I spent in Woods for morels... Canada is awesome ..
That's awesome! Love morels. You should make a video on how to dry them out. Not a lot of info on that out there.
Wow looks like you did great and had some fun
Yes we did!
Cool vid. I need to get out there!
Awesome 😍
wow
Using a basket or similar to allow the spores to fall and get spread around more as you're foraging sounds like a good practice. Another thing...as a conservation bio/ecology major, I would not take every one I found. I would maybe take 1 in 4, and if I wanted to find more giant ones in the future in a certain spot, I would leave the biggest ones so that their genetics aren't removed with my harvest. Humans exert certain pressures on organisms that change them. For example, hunters always want the biggest males with the biggest antlers. But when those individuals are killed, their genes are removed from the gene pool. Over time, the antlers in hunted populations get smaller because the males with smaller antlers had the survival advantage, made more offspring, and in a few generations, there aren't any males with huge antlers anymore. We have done the same to some populations of fish, and plants, and elephants, probably morels. It's very much like selective breeding, except we are inadvertently removing the traits we desire.
When a few morels popped up in my friend's woodchips recently, we left all of them and the thought of 'seeding' certain wild places has crossed my mind as well.
with cream, green peper and chicken, grenaille potatoes you can take one glasses of white wine [little bit sugar] Sauterne. simple food beautiful moment. where is this place if you have more plan, chanterelle or trompette de la mort you know not only for you good food i like to beautiful food. i'm interested.
Any luck out there this year yet Jake.?😊
I found one on the swan lake burn… been to dry till now
@@HowtoAlaska well that’s a start lol, I was hoping this rain would get things going down there. Probably try that way next week. Thxs😊
Found 3 more dried up ones, this year is a bust, no morel videos this year. Maybe next year… it was just too dry this spring
There a lot harder to find here in kentucky.never seen so many in one spot
That many Morel’s here in Northern Indiana would be worth hundreds of dollars…!
Hello, Do you sell morel mushrooms?Thanks
I don’t currently, but am considering it for future seasons
@@HowtoAlaska Thank you!
Is there any danger of bears
Yes, we saw fresh tracks and scat and later heard of a sow and cubs in the area. I had 220 grains as a deterrent.
Down south people out them in onion sacks so the spores can fall out and help future production
