After decades of casually looking for morels, and just recently getting committed to being more serious about it, I've watched over a dozen videos on tree identification. They all leave much to be desired, usually giving me no clear or useful information. This video was the first one that was clear, concise, visually informative, thorough, descriptive, etc. The comparisons were an excellent touch that really made a big difference.
You did an excellent job here, my friend. Your effort is greatly appreciated, so thank you for sharing this with us. It's going to significantly improve my understanding of what I'm looking at.
I liked everything in this video except he encourages people to find trees and go find morels. No discussion on Private Property. As in ASK permission to go on to someone's property, don't trespass.
Tell me how you really feel@@johnp7551
@@johnp7551also, I've seen him cover asking permission on private land in quite a few of his videos. You must be new.
This is absolutely the Most informational video I’ve ever found on the distinction between tree species relating to the morel season. Normally I watch one of these videos and I’m more confused at the end then I was when I started now I’m absolutely positive I can see the difference between the trees thank you so much
Very true
I completely agree.
Your teaching style is superb because you know the value of comparing look alikes. Thank you for doing what you do
You did such a GREAT job explaining how to identify the trees, thank you so much!!!
i just love this guy! I've only found a couple of morels here in Indiana for the last 3 years, but I'm not giving up cause I understand that this is a numbers game! One has to keep lookimg and studying trees! And so I have watched this video at least t6 times! Thanks Dude!
Thank you for taking the time to teach tree identification
Great video. I definitely needed the education. 20 years I've gotten somewhat lucky driving old forest roads with random stops and just a walk-in to the woods.
I've been on TH-cam for since 2007 never ever subscribed to anyome... except for you!!! I'm from somerset county pa and after spending all late winter watching your videos..this has been mu best year Morrell hunting ever...MY HATS OFF TO YOU SIR...NO BS, NO GARBAGE TALK JUST STRAIGHT EDUCATIONAL TALK WHICH I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR...I LOVE TO GO FORAGUNG WITH YOU SO TIME
Great identification video. I really appreciated the time lapse, for identifying through the Spring season. Thank you.
You really are very good at giving enough detail and information so anyone can learn what you are teaching. Most don't take the time to make a video with this much detail and information. Keep making more please
I was a kid during the great elm tree die off of the 1960's That was a boom time for finding morels.
Great Video!! I've been hunting for almost 40 years and consider myself a decent hunter. The information here is going to be a game changer for me....😎
This video described and showed the elm bark really well. Thank you!
Easiest way ~is id the elm tree by its leaves in season! The bark forever after confirms it in the woods. Fyi!
Very, very, very good advice in regards to pre-season scouting.
Thanks!
Indeed slippery elms = Quality & Quantity!! 👌👍🍄🍄🍄🍄
Hey buddy, I subbed...had a nice little Easter drive looking for the shades of green in the masses of bare forests here in northern NY. They're not turning quite yet up here. You have provided the absolutely Best Help I could have ever asked for! I found them before accidentally while out metal detecting or turkey hunting, but now have high hopes for this year...Bravo Sir!!..Cheers from Watertown,NY!
I totally agree with the last person, very informative. I Actually learned something myself which isn't easy to do at my age.
you pulled out the trees of PA book then i looked over to my bookshelf and remembered i have the same exact book, great video very helpful
You have a good spirit. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Protect the trees!!!
Thank you. This video is exactly what I needed.
Great descriptions , I'll be watching this again come early spring!
Great Video! You definitely have an eye for distinguishing trees. Thanks for sharing!!
We are fortunate enough to have morels on my property, about 20' from my kitchen. Tees in that area: 2 American Elms, 2 ornamental cherry, 8 crepe myrtle, a pine and a tulip poplar about 40' away. There is also some english ivy and azaleas.
11:15 😂. You have to be able to identify driving down the road going 40 to 50 mph in a second. LMFAO I love it. Great video 👌
actually once you are sensitized to these things it is very true. i have id's many plants at 70-80 mph.
Thank you so much for this. I will use this info here in the next few weeks. I find them but not enough so this will definitely help alot.
Great job John..thanks for your hard work
Thanks!
I love how close up and focussed your filming is - it’s as if I am looking at the bark in real life! Thank you.
Really enjoyed this video!
Found ours under a white pine in our yard, so good!
For anyone looking for a great tree field guide, I highly recommend your state's version of the book the presenter holds up @ 7:00. Stan Takiela has many field guides on many subjects. The photography is great, the info is great, and the organization is great.
Great educational tutorial! Thanks
That’s some great detail video brother thanks so much for sharing ❤ you are awesome
Your videos are great. I’m still looking for my first one this season in Virginia and Tennessee.
Thank you! Awesome information.
Thanks very helpful tree bark identification can be difficult your explanations very good & detailed
Good stuff ! Thanks for sharing your expertise !
Great video on tree I'd. Thanks for sharing.
Good shot of the seed pods
Great job! Thanks - much appreciated...
Thank you for this video!!
Excellent video! Thank you!
Great vid for this novice hunter. Thanks!!!
Great video, thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much. I shared this on Michigan Morels Facebook page.
To me young elm bark looks like a morel top. This is great information thank you so much. This is not just book homework this is in the field research you are sharing. Helps alot with my early spring tree top scouting
Very great video of distinguishing the difference between each spices of elm trees n awesome explanation of what to look for in hunting for Morales. Thank you
Very helpful to help identify them!
best video i've ever seen for elm id
Nice video!
I would mention the spongy corky bark on slippery Elm. I often push on it for confirmation
Great video my friend, much appreciated!
Excellent!! Thank you so much!!
You're welcome!
Great Video! Thanks for the information
You're welcome!
Excellent Elm Identification, Thank You for the videos.
Thanks!
@@Leatherwoodoutdoors2 Hi John, 40 years+ ago I worked on The Allegheny National Forest for the US Forest Service and lived outside Marienville in Loleta Recreation Area, loved that area up there, it feels so insulated from the busy areas of Pennsylvania, would go shop for groceries once a week in Clarion. Great Fishing up there, such a really nice area, you are so versed in the outdoors, you have picked up a lot along the way, you must of had some very good mentors too. My Grandfather taught me a lot and so did my Dad and I thank the many others also that kept drilling the trees and ferns and wildflowers into me. Mushrooms I was always told to stay away from. Got to mention the huge Black Cherry trees that are up there. The Forest Service would always paint a big capital S on them and collect the seeds. I understand they don't do that anymore. Will look forward to more of your videos and wish you and Danielle the very best.
Pennsylvania means Penn's Forest or Woods!
Thanks for the helpful video! Good luck hunting!
Great video!! Thank u for taking the time to create this. Instead of “arms”, while in Louisiana, we called those “tree knee’s”. Just a fun fact!! Happy morel hunting!
Thanks for sharing this, I haven't found my morel yet so I am so frustrated. Appreciate this video
Very Good Info!!! Thanks and subscribed
Thanks so much for this! I have been trying to identify all week since discovering you. Should've known you had video for identifying. Down around the Laurel Highlands Ohio Pyle area so this should be perfect.
Good luck!
Shroomers in my neck of the woods find the mother load of morels around red elm (the heart wood looks like walnut) . Around here we’ll find many pounds of early grays and whites in bottom lands along creeks where the silver maples grow ,(the thicker the better),in a good year these places will produce morels for a couple of weeks, then around the first of may you can find the big yellow ones around the big live sycamore trees next to the creek. If you’re a novice,hunt the creek bottoms keep your eyes peeled as you walk and you’ll find em,remember to get permission before you go on private property,offer some of your find sometimes works !
I'm really glad that you share your knowledge and enthusiasm for the "hunt." One of the top videos I've found in how to identify trees. I'm novice at tree identification and I like the way you break it down. Thank you 😊
Thanks!
Great video!
Great Video. Thanks
Amazing video. You made something I’ve struggled with for years so much easier. Thank you for the in depth video it really helped.
Well done tree id video! I think I got more & better information from you than I have from so called tree experts. Good Hunting!
Very good!!
Really excellent
Superb. Thanks.
Thanks for the info. Going to try hunting Southern WV
Very helpful!
Locust also looks very similar to walnut. Never found a morel by either tree. Dying and recently dead elm is like a beacon 👍
Interesting, I definitely find morels near elm trees. Just more around sycamores, mid northern missouri
Love watching your videos John. Thank you for the information.
Glad you enjoy the videos! You're welcome!
Newly on this side of the country. Tulip poplar.....as soon as it began to get warmer, I noticed the puffs of white flowers. A whole bunch of elms blooming like crazy. Lots of creeks and woods here (YAY!) FROM Pennslvaia; now in Virginia. Time to take a hike. I've noticed strips of cloth hanging from some of the trees. Makes me wonder; I'd tag one to remember next year.
John talks to us not at us using giant scientific words. Great video.
Awesome content! Thank you!
You can reach out to them online store 💯💯👍
Sharon_dize????

????IG!!!!!
Great video
Thank you so much for teaching . Man people around the Ligonier, latrobe area wow they are like no we don’t talk about these mushrooms . We dont want anyone to know we are finding morels
@@billybatts9491 thank you . People around here would shoot you if your in there spot
All helpful observations. thanks for sharing. Just have problems with bark ID. ski trails?
Thanks for the info! Here in Missouri I’ve found the best quantity and quality are around sycamore trees.
Thank you for this brilliant presentation!
Now I just need to find somewhere I can purchase slippery elm trees to plant on my river front land in the Eastern Pan Handle of West Virginia.
I cant wait to try Morrell hunting here in NW PA
Good Luck!
Thanks for the informative video! I also love morel mushrooms which I used to look for when I was a kid back in Algeria (Kabylie Region).
Just out of curiosity; when the Elm trees start flourishing, we used to eat the fresh seed pods (best natural popcorn ever)... Have you guys in the States tried anything like that?
Thank you
Great video I’m starting knowing about trees I was wondering what’s the best time to find small elms to replanting or find seeds I’m on Virginia I had seen a couple elms I love to plant one on my yard
Good video
White ash produces for me here in MI, most elms are long gone now. Thks for the vid!
In michigan??
Thanks. Your reply read my mind. Most Elms are gone due to Dutch Elm Disease in Mi. So I was wondering about other good trees to find morels. Good vid tho.
The base description is helpful. Also they resemble a vase shape. Can’t they also have water sprouts sticking out low sometimes? Even on a really large tree
neat video
I love what I can get from your videos, could you PLEASE do Close Captions. I think it could help others like me as well. Thank you
Found 21 huge yellows Saturday in Michigan!
Hey buddy, my husband Boots and I are so impressed with your knowledge! You make it so easy to understand! We just subscribed. It is April of 2020 now tho in the middle of a killer virus pandemic, so we are spending a lot of time morel hunting! Thank you so much!
Any luck so far, what state? County, gps coordinates😉
Yeah, how’s it going? No luck yet in WNC. Maybe getting too late now.
So helpful! I'm nearing a very big birthday... Achem... And I never knew the difference. Thank you!
I'm about halfway between Pittsburgh and Erie looking 3 to 4 times a week no luck yet....found some old dried up and rotted lions mane though so excited to see if they come back
you do a nice job on your videos John! thanks
Thank you!
I never knew Luke Wilson was such an outdoorsman.
the term for when the bottom of a trunk goes out is called buttressing, good call, i hadnt noticed that on elms before
A lot are found around cedar trees in Oklahoma. I personally have noticed finding them around silver leaves. This does include Elm.
When I was a kid we would get the hole family and go find these and they are awesome to eat
Do you have to go dig them out of their hole each Spring?!
Great video man I’m in Ohio I look for same thing season is coming in 😊
Hit those live sycamore tree's late in the season! BIG yellows will be there! One of my best finds was all around a dutch elm diseased tree that had later been popped by lightning.
