My son is driving me nuts about going mushroom hunting. Problem is, I have no experience doing it...I've looked them up online and it says to find Elm trees or Oak trees. LBL should be lousy with them.
Just a word of Caution -- also glad the picture was posted with what to look for.. There is a mushroom that looks just like what you buy in the store that pretty much only grows under Oak trees --- Two years ago those Mushrooms almost took my life.. when eaten they destroy the Liver completely... and I almost did not get to the doctor in time
With all the logging they've done in LBL the past few years it could actually be pretty good in those logged areas where they left a lot of the tree tops/brush. Even the prescribed burn areas probably would be decent.
If no luck in LBL, try Clarks River Refuge, there are areas of the refuge that are full of swamp chestnut oaks and willow oaks.
