Not sure about morels, but come the opener of elk season, there are a good number of edible mushrooms in the mountains. We have lots of chantarelles, which are excellent eating.

Here's a map that you might enjoy:     .  There's another web site that has something similar; if I can find it and it's worth it, I'll post that as well.

Greg,

Spring time brings the morels for about a month or so. Usually when the Temps are a high of 55-65 during the day and acouple days after a rain you will find best conditions.

Ken,

Anything goes well with Morel.  There are a lot of recipes out there. I like them in sauces and when fresh I like them fried with a light coat of flour and in butter on a cast iron skillet.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Twist my Arm Ken.

Although ones like Smoke's are more appealing to the Culinary Market, These large ones usually taste great too.

   

   

dont drool.   ;)

This thread should be deleted until we can get a few mushrooms in MT!  I've resisted posting hoping this would go away, but it's too good.  Pics are great and expect some pics of my own to make you guys jealous once they come out.

Perch fishing starts next week, a staple spring crop along with mushrooms here in western MT.  They don't have much to do with archery other than the fish fries we have in hunting camp in September.  

Keep pickin'

I found 251 on 4/9 and 4/10
We call these the "Little Grey Mushrooms" and they are normally found in clusters. They are the same as big morels and taste every bit as good except they are half the size or smaller.
I hunt all mine in the river bottoms or close to it. The big white or blonde morels can be found in the bottoms or even up near ridge tops.
Unfortunately I cannot find the pictures on my computer. If I locate them I'll come back and post em.
I can't find the pic anywhere, but they look exactly like the picture that Smoke posted.
Very tasty!


Found 70 white morels day before yesterday.
4 Quart ziploc bags full all cleaned and sliced ready to bread and fry. MMMmmmmm Good!

Cut'm in half blanch for about 20 or 30 sec., butter and soy in a frying pan and enjoy. The soy just adds that little extra that makes it my favorite recipe,
