I have vaguely heard about it, I will add it to my list ty :)

Just kinda looked like it lol, I know its not actually but a guy has to wonder how it got there :)

@IslandUncharted I was looking at it thinking it doesn't look moon rockish 😉

Thank you :)

Oh heck ya anytime I get the chance!

Thank you!!!!

In know right??? as a kid I used to climb on the booms and jig for cod, thing of the past now :(

No, it is a Leccinum

@@shmooveyea Thanks for posting !

@@als1023 also known as scaberstalks. Anecdotally Some people will dry them and turn then into powder to use as flavoring but beware 1 out 3 people experience Gastro intestinal distress from consuming them.

That's what I thought at first

No problem :)

So it's actually a thing, like the candy stick flowers? I typically never go up there lol

@IslandUncharted yes as I understand its for real . There is a map online that shows where the candysticks (allotropa virgata) have been found in BC. Find the map and put the candycane test to the test?! Lol

Thank you, im definitely not a pro pine hunter, but I went from wandering around to finding buckets at the end of the adventure, just wanted to share what I had figured out in that time so people can have a bit more of a head start

I have heard stores about people using rakes and messing it all up, and the next year, it's still good. I don't like the idea of that either way. Thank you :)

@@IslandUncharted yea in the long run amd as mushrooming becomes more popular the rakes will fuxj up the mycelium and the pines will disappear. Feel aroind and look hard for the shrumps is all you gotta do. You can feel the pines through the moss no need to tear it all up. If you can see or feel them then they aren't for you

Yes and part of it is respect for mother nature.

I was out there for days on end learning, with these solid guys. Thank you

Your awesome Dave, thank you! If you don't end up finding any. I would 100% take you to find some of your own near to home. I have also been donating them to friends and family. If you want some please let me know

@IslandUncharted I would love to find some 👍Ive been picking a few yrs on and off but found everything else but pines lol Ive looked lots high and low. But im thinking once you find the first ones, then you really get what your looking for!!

I released that after your are 100% correct

SFA cant hardy get 10 bucks for a pounds of ones!

Hahaha cool story man

do you work for CBC?

I'm not trying to be a dick but ya, we do that.. Humans are actually better spreading spores than nature. That's why there are holes in 5g buckets. Please tell me you didn't vote kamala lmao

Im a Canadian born and raised. I would assume they do what we do with them bud

July 18-20!!! maybe see you there

It truly is a testament to the architecture of times long past

Your welcome!!!!

I'm glad you liked it!

Such a beautiful place, I was very fortunate to visit. It was one of my favorite hikes ever

Tried to edit, but i dehydrate mine whole. Found flavor was better then cutting up 🤷

Its defiantly the way to do it!!! thank you Dave!!!! your awesome

Thanks man! The freezer is full! I was able to hook up my friends, cover the gas and make a few bucks on the side! good times and some amazing memories

It was really awesome to see a bumper year! I have been doing this for a long time and this year was the best I have ever seen, hands down!

The price was trash this year, bumper crop. started @ 12 bucks and quicky plummeted to 3. I don't pick for money, I pick cause I love the outdoors and hooking up friends and family. Its Pine time now!

On the west coast here I estimate about 1% bug damage to the Chanterelle's!

As a stickler, real nerds then 'plant' the trimmed stem butts nearby. Maybe not 400lbs worth!

We went back there 10 days later and there were even more!

Let me know how they turn out! I like the idea of pickling

This is the best info I have received about that spot since posting the video. I initially located the "kitchen spot" the first time I hiked the Runners trail. This actually makes a lot of sense now. If you have any addition info I would to hear it. For a long time after seeing that I was perplexed, wondering why it was so far from the main camp. Thank you

That's exactly my plan for my dehydrated ones, powder! The pickling was a complete experiment! The dry sauté is my fav so far but I'm still learning. I love the idea of harvesting and preserving, not just mushrooms but a lot of other stuff! I'm defiantly getting a canner soon. I have also been thinking about experimenting with dehydrated backpacking meals cause I am done with 20$ packs that "have hard things in them" thank you :)

@@IslandUncharted yeah, I think dehydrating your own backpacking meals would be the way to go. I can't believe the prices of those packaged ones...seems like too much to me. I got my canner from Home Hardware. It's the Presto one. I like that it's a straightforward one and no fancy bells or whistles to break.

Mid island, Alberni valley..... there is no market here atm, might appear as the end of the season come near... not sure I'm not a commercial seller, just one of those guys that doesn't mind covering costs, making a few bucks and putting a bunch in the freezer :) Word on the street is the pines are about, I wish I knew more about them... only ones I found were on the side of the road lol.

sooke going off

I would agree with @westcoast8562 its good out there

The last few years here have been terrible, this year was amazing! get out there!

Thank you! it sure has been a great year delicious!!!

Thank you! I just love being out there!

sounds like a plan!

Thank you!!!!

I find my peace out there!

I am always looking for outdoors like minded people :)

Thank you!!!!!!!! it truly is, but worth every second out there!

Hey I'm sorry for the delayed reply, just seeing this now! there are a couple weeks left of pine season though!
