Mushroom Hunting In Michigan's Upper Peninsula

[Music] do [Music] well david and i have a bet he says these are hedgehogs and i am saying these are just too big oh the suspense to cut it and see underneath oh i was wrong look at the size of this hedgehog look at the size of that bullet right there on the side of the hill see if i can get down there it's quite a ways downhill look at that bully that thing is huge i lost the bet i see dawn picking mushrooms we forgot our basket in the truck so she stole my hat a hat doubles as a mushroom basket everyone wonders why i'm always wearing a hat so you can swat it bugs and you got a mushroom basket hedgehogs hedgehogs my favorite you guys get a good look at what she's picking show us a good one right here yeah dawn puts garlic on them look she passed a bunch oh there's some more over there she passed and some more over there she passed oh they're going all the way up the hill these cute little guys there's a hilaria maybe a dead man's finger but it's a zlaria these are the winter chanterelle or the yellow foot chantrell right here sorry i have two different species in my hand i prefer the term yellow foot but it's really cool you see them from the top down in these leaves you really got to know what you're looking for these aren't extremely common of a chanterelle but they are an edible chanterelle these are a hygroscopy but they are called the chanterelle wax cap they're not a chanterelle they do sort of resemble one they usually don't get very big but they are gorgeous i'm glad we came out on this grand soggy afternoon dawn thinks she's out mushroom hunting in me but not even close i spotted these she keeps spotting jelly babies i suspect what we found here is lamnoya paladorosa i'm gonna smell it and see if it smells like chicken soup or bouillon that's one of my favorite edibles if that's what it is the stem will have it easily bruises but i will do a video on this mushroom and my mushroom minutes as well as any of the mushrooms that you guys see in my videos jelly babies right there i hope to do a mushroom minute over the next year get a mushroom minute where i just briefly show this tremendous versicolor on my playlists if you look i hope to have a mushroom minute where i just briefly show each mushroom and its characteristics one at a time beautiful up here at craig lake state park [Music] do [Music] do [Music] foreign [Music] [Music] do [Music] got a really really delicious mushroom to show you guys this is the coral tooth it's heresium corialodes this is a really good example of it but sometimes you see it just really feathery and the distinguishing feature is there's an icicle that hangs down whereas coral points up on hericium species this icicle looking structure points down that's a key feature to help you distinguish the difference new foragers distinguishing the difference between euresium species and the other corals but heresium grows on wood it's a delicious edible mushroom it's my number one mushroom ah harissium americanus is my number one mushroom horizon aeronesia which is lion's mane is also another this is a fabulous mushroom remember with the hurricanes you have the icicle that faces downward have dawn zoom in i'm kind of shaky but and they grow on wood they're a delicious fragrant meaty mushroom absolutely made my day got kind of a neat one i want to show you guys there are a category of these mushrooms that are referred to as scarlettina and the reason they're referred to that is because we only have european classifications for the mushroom this particular mushroom because it's next to hemlock i'm going to assume before i pick it that we're looking at neo-bolitis subvalutipies in any other area we would have to call this scarlettina so one way that we know we have it is the pink to bright red gills and another way that we know we have it is it stains blue and then immediately turns black this is referred to is the red mouth bolite usually it has a dull orange cap that fades to a lighter orange at the margin sometimes can be yellow and pink to red pores the red mouthed bolete this one is associated with hemlock it's also edible club moss this is what's used this tip here this flower also if you let it dry and create a bunch of powder it is a flash powder and it goes up i mean like fireworks club moss [Music] do [Music] do [Music] so [Music] do [Music] [Music] [Music] we got lobsters we got lobsters dawn and i come up to the u.p to mushroom hunt and do this you ut up video because a couple of people had requested from the up that we do this and we're at a rest stop i think we were somewhere near christmas michigan and we ran into a very friendly fellow by the name of ryan greg and we chatted about anything and everything for quite a while he asked about some mushrooms we started talking and then we mentioned we had a youtube channel and he was talking to his wife jessica greg hello jessica and she said well who is it you're talking to and he said i think the name of them is found you forging and she says oh great i follow those guys anyway ryan because he was on his honeymoon asked me to give a shout out to jessica who follows us on youtube and we'd have done that anyway hope you guys had a wonderful honeymoon up on the up dawn and i are having a blast up here we found many species but right now we are in a beautiful patch of lobsters so i'll have dawn film these lobsters down here there's several up in here big one over there also guys any of the mushrooms that you see in these foraging videos that don and i do go to our playlists and look for mushroom minute id and instead of having to watch a long video on a specific species of mushroom you can just go right away to that playlist and go to mushroom minute and find the mushroom you're wanting to identify and i give a brief description this is a perfect lobster and i wanted to give that example in the camera now that's pretty that made my day i want to give a big hello to dave ferguson and his daughter sophia lila and remy who i'm told affectionately refers to me as the mushroom man dave reached out and said hello and told us that they watch our videos and it's getting him and his daughters out hunting more and spending time together in the woods which i can't think of a better thing to do so i have a mushroom for remy i wanted to show her these two things go together this pretty mushroom is the painted suellas mushroom some people call it the painted bolite if it's easier for you to say a painted bleach has a veil right here and that veil will fall away that's the remnants of the veil as it gets older and it will reveal a porous surface with a magnifying glass you look at it it looks like little angled tubes no gills a spongy porous surface the top of the mushroom will be a bit knobby and it can have yellow and orange streaks in it a lot like the stem here in order to eat this mushroom these are worm holes you would want to cut it in half and make sure that you don't have wormholes and then you would want to take and peel this porous surface away from the cap and then it can be eaten but it's not necessarily a delicious mushroom the reason i'm showing it to you is because it's a very pretty mushroom and it's associated with the pine white pine specifically it can grow under other conifers but it prefers the white pine now what makes a pine a pine is from the branch you'll have this little node that we call a fascicle and the fascicle holds together a group or a cluster of pine needles and that's what makes it a pine and what makes it easy to remember white pine from other pines is that in this cluster this group on this fascicle right there there are five needles connected and there are five letters in the word white so white pine five letters five needles and if you find this pine tree during the summer months and into autumn you can find this beautiful painted swellis mushroom thanks for watching guys orange peel fungus is edible smooth surface on the bottom looks beaded the magnifying glass smooth surface on top sometimes it's large enough i guess you can see with your eyes the beads on the bottom or what resembles beads on the bottom of the orange peel fungus it's edible i can't say it's delicious but it's still an edible fungus still beautiful to find hope i didn't make you guys dizzy dawn is on a roll this morning finding black trumpets where there's one there's more right let's take a walk [Music] these are as far as the eye can see we're gonna pick about two pounds and leave them for anyone capable of spotting them [Music] [Music] you
