I'm a long way from a mushroom expert but they look suspiciously like pheasant back mushrooms.

It's a little known fact that wrens are fond of them... :coffee:

When they were replacing those 2 bridges on SB 35 south of there, we went through Hugo all the time to get to Hwy 61 & took that down to Vadnais Heights/694 for a detour. Much quicker & that's why I remember where snow lives.

Yes those are pheasant backs!  :happy1:
They get pretty woody but I cut the thinner outside edges off and batter and deep fry them!  :dancinred:
My spots that I have picked for about 8 years are dead.  I guess I need to go up to Hugo and start looking around!  :rotflmao:

Leech,

Running thru the woods in hugo is someone's backyard these days,builder's are popping up neighborhoods left n right,at one time Hugo got it's town name from "hugo = "Help Us Get Out"  I was told back in 1999 when I moved here once you move in you never leave.Starting to feel closed in these days,good news is I have enough land for my pup and target practice with my .22 and bow,plus a nice shooting range 1 mile away,Wild wings game farm down the road as well,plenty of scratch birds make it to my place every fall,shotgun/pistol range,new snowflakes moving in are complaining about the gun range already,thankgoodness our 2A  has grandfathered in our states gun ranges,they can't close'em down but the counties put pressure and strict rules about shooting hours and what evening's ranges are allowed to operate,forest lake gun range comes to mind...G.D urban sprawl.

Not a bad idea Leech,I sniffed around B.E.S.A last night after we were done shooting,found a few small schrooms  walking thru the 3D archery course on the uphill side,thinking our picking days are over in my area,cleaned out my area last week,neighbor claimed he made a haul (cash)selling his stash to a restaurant  in White Bear,old timer is pretty spry in his old age,if it ain't schooming season he's always roaming collecting aluminum cans keeps him in shape,guessing he's late 80's?

Yeah snow, Hwy 61 seemed like it was hard to tell when you left 1 town & got to another. A lot of new building going on in that area & if it wasn't residential, it was commercial pretty much all the way to 694. :rolleyes:

Years ago,we were told that mpls/st paul would be all urban sprawl all the way to duluth,kinda looking that way,heck the gateway trail from north st.paul run's all the way to duluth now.
