    Death caps are the sole reason you need an experienced forager to help you identify wild mushies. I actually have a fairly limited academic background in fungi and even I only will search out chicken of the woods, honey, chanterelle, and morels. Although I have been known to dehydrate a fly agaric on occasion too.

      Yep, I’m afraid to hunt mushrooms in my area! Too risky!
