RE: Foraging for Wild Edible Mushrooms: Chantrelles
I am not good enough to identify the different subspecies of Chanterelle. I have seen at least 2 or 4 for sure, and there are probably more than that.
As far as the black trumpets go, no, I've never found any. I know of others in the area who have, I hear they are delicious, but I've never come across them.
It sounds like you are finding the cinnabars, too. So that's good. It would be fun to find them all and have multi-colored mushroom meal, lol. My dad's advice for the black trumpets has always been to 'look for the holes'. And I find that true. We're used to looking for mushrooms popping up, but the trumpets look like holes. It's a different mental pattern.
