So we've been driving down this for service road
So we pulled over
We found this little area just like the moss. I'm just gonna have a look and check some stuff out
Look at this. Oh nice. Wow. Look at look at that. See something. You got to pay attention. Yeah
There's some there
There's some buttons. Whoa
Clusters look at this. Oh god, I almost stepped on one
These are all chanterelles
Awesome
This is so great
Huh? There's a couple more. So yeah, and we're literally about half a mile from the coast
Or your clay lock, Washington. So yeah, this is awesome
So
Let's see, there's a nice one here. Oh, that's two actually
Gorgeous beautiful mushrooms
See I love coming to the coast
Few of the other YouTube guys that we're talking about finding
Chanterelles on the coast. So this is exciting. I know it's not a lot. Guess what? It's mushrooms and it's July
I'm gonna go ahead and harvest some of these. Yeah winning winning for sure
Okay, here's my little haul
Little haul I did leave a bunch of little ones
Clusters here
Spread the love that's really cool
Right along the side
So, that's how we found the other ones too, so we're gonna keep looking at some of these little mossy areas, but yeah
Chanterelles in July living the dream
This
And this is what you'd be looking for
It's a little bit older
Obviously you can see all the slime do on I'm sorry slug slug slime. This is a rustle of the Vikings
So, yeah, so there's been recent moisture here and again, we're probably now about a mile from the coast
Look what I found
That's right kids
We're talking
Chanterelles in July
So I saw this a little area on the side of the road I saw something to look like a mushroom I saw this
What I just found what do you think? This is I'm thinking it's a brand new fresh rustler. Let's see
It's brand new coming up. Sure enough
This is a neat little area
This little cluster is just
Nice
Nice this look. Yeah, it's an interesting little area. Look at this. Oh, there's some
So I just like they're just coming up. This is what we get here on the coast
They're not very big
And I literally just decided to come
It's nice
There's a whole cluster of them
Stop really quick
This is good
So I'm still looking around the same little area I saw this big down tree
It's really interesting
Noticing there's some more polypores up that tree and I'm noticing some sort of orange
This dry
Oh my god, it smells so good
This is really awesome
It's spongy
It's not chicken the woods you it's very soft
But yeah, this is not
Chicken
So we just stopped on the side of the road
Some chanterelles definitely shiny chanterelles
Here exactly exactly two miles from the coast
This is all probably moisture from the coast, but these are all just starting to come up
We've been finding them for the ladies on the side of the road
You can see there
Yes, you can see how they're small
This is always special find check it out. So these are
This one it's kind of older this one's a little bit right here
Hey guys, so this is the end result of just a little bit of foraging on some of the roads here
West Coast not a not a bad little haul
you can see how we
We found some of them. Thank you. So in the video, you know, they're really really
mushrooms
and the smell it's almost got like a
Fruity apricot smell and they're amazing. So I just finished rinsing them out here. We're back at the RV
So I'm gonna go ahead and wash these
clean these up a little bit more and
Even I'm in the trailer
Processing they'll keep a long time. Just wash them rinse them off
Inside
Inside the open air in the fridge and if you leave them in there long enough
They will actually cold dehumidify and they'll get nice and dry. So it is one way of doing it
But as far as these goes
What it is I don't want to process
Yeah, I just want to share our little haul so it's great
It's gonna make a great little meal and this is just beautiful to find these on the West Coast
in July
