Every spring, people scour river bottoms, searching for edible morel mushrooms. For many mushroom hunters, finding the hollow, sponge-like mushrooms is as much a draw as their earthy flavor.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel And they won't tell you where they pick them either.
"A tradition continues
A few weeks ago, Kristi Jones went hunting with her sons and nephew for the first time without her father. They had been hunting for nearly an hour and almost given up.
“I just kind of stopped and looked down, and I saw one. I just looked at Matthew, my son, and I looked down, and I said, ‘Thanks, Dad,” she says.
She says she found eight or nine other morels. “And I just really felt dad there going, ‘here you go find the cluster.”
Jones says it’s bittersweet to hunt without her dad, but she’ll never give it up.
“And I know my boys are planning to pass it down when they have kids. It'll just be a tradition that continues in our family,” she says. “And I'm sure they'll tell stories to their kids about their grandpa.”
Jones encourages hunters to enjoy the time in peace and quiet of nature, even if they don’t find anything."

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - No... I just know how my neighbor & others are. I've never found one... I was told they grow under a Mayflower... but now I know "The ground temperatures need to be between 55 and 60 degrees, and they only grow near freshly dead trees that still have a lot of bark on them."
