Morels Yet?

Found and picked my first Morels right afer work today. Picked about 25 yellows in the south metro. Right near a dead elm. I found them all in one patch. These were all on a small NORTH facing slope. I figured and search far and wide on a south slope but didn't find any there. I was just about to give up again when sure enough there one was. All found within 30ft of each other. I was on a time constraint to get home, so I had to cut my search short from there. I fried up and tried my first morels in butter just a few minutes ago, and all I can say is YUM. I won't be able to check the spot again until next Monday or Tuesday, so hopefully there will still be some there. I am headed up north to my cabin on a fishing trip. Friday night is grilling night. I have a bunch left to go with steaks. Is there a way to keep these good until then, or should I just eat them all now?

I went out after work and found only about 8. It seemed like it was a little dry because there wasn't that many and it sure was hard to find the ones I did and the ones I found were a little dry on the top. I hope this rain does something for them and the temps next week should get the huge ones up I would think.

Jerkin'm thanks again for telling me about the ramps, they were so good. I too found them near the bottom of a valley type woods on a more shaded side hill. They were all where all the dutchman breeches were growing in really lose black soil. Not trying to go off track here but they are a treasure to find.

So I just got off the phone with my parents who are down in SE MN and they went out this morning and found at least 5# of giant morels in 20 min in one spot. Wish I would have gone down with them, hope their still there next weekend. They took some pics of some of the big ones and I will have to see if I can figure out a way to get them up.

Nice leeks! 'shroom hunters consolation prize?

I need to get out this weekend. Got my first mushrooms on Thursday, it was pretty cool! Big props to my guide who shall remain nameless. Now I just have to go out and find my own spots!

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
