SUMMARY:Guided Mushroom Hike
DESCRIPTION:Join our local mushroom expert Mike Potts for a slow-paced\, off-trail walk through the woods and learn your way around the world of wild fungi. The emphasis will be on finding fungi and learning about identification and the diversity of mushroom species and how to sustainably harvest wild mushrooms. Edible and poisonous varieties will be discussed. Meet at the Northwest Nature Shop\, 154 Oak St.\, Ashland at 10:00 am on Sunday\, October 6th where we’ll gather as a group and then drive to the foraging location (approximately 45 – 60 minutes from Ashland.) Return to Ashland by 4:00 pm. \nBe prepared for adverse weather. Wear appropriate hiking shoes (We will be doing some off-trail walking on uneven terrain)\, bring a water bottle\, a lunch\, rain gear\, a collecting basket\, a foldable knife\, a mushroom ID book if you have one\, and a whistle. Cost is $55 per person per hike. The location of each hike will be disclosed at a later date to give us flexibility in planning around weather and mushroom abundance. Space is limited so sign up early. Payment at the time of registration is required. Call 541-482-3241 to sign up or email northwestnatureshop@gmail.com \nHOW TO PREPARE: \nDress appropriately for the weather. The key to having an enjoyable experience is to be prepared for the possibly cold and wet weather. We will be in the forests of the southern Oregon Cascade range @ 4500 ft so expect considerably colder temps at that elevation. We won’t be moving that fast so you might get colder than you do on normal hikes! We recommend dressing in layers and bringing waterproof outer layers. We will walk rain or shine.\nWear sturdy shoes. It is important to wear appropriate shoes/boots for being in the forest. Expect uneven terrain through the forest and be prepared to traverse through undergrowth\, over fallen branches\, and logs at times.\nThere are no bathrooms or outhouses at trail heads we leave from. Please plan accordingly.\nBring a lunch\, water\, knife\, safety whistle\, and basket or bag for collecting.\nPlease\, No Dogs. We love them but for mushroom walks\, we have to ask you to leave them home.\nBring a positive attitude and an open mind to learn about the world of fungi around you.
