Hunting WILD Mushrooms in Alaska - Life in Alaska

[@connerhart3223]

I loved the little camera punch in the intro

[@SimpleLivingAlaska]

Thanks for the educational video. We stayed at an RV camp in the Wasilla Palmer area and were fortunate to find King Boletes while there.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Of course! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@truckerbaty7425]

Moose are awesome! Majestic

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Yes they are!

[@seekcamera2638]

I think the best bear spray is .44 caliber

[@RonnieFoFonnie]

Great vid, Jenn. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Thank you!

[@akbychoice]

Look where Forrest fires were the year before to find morels. There are false morels in AK but next to each other they are easy to tell apart.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Great insight. Thank you!

[@ravenousjm]

Enjoyed the video, nice to see from Jen's perspective for a change! Looks like a day well spent.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Thank you and it was!

[@jillyandavis8891]

Interesting and enjoyable, well done Jenn.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Thank you!

[@patriciarussell7487]

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Mooseshrooms!

[@marygrace124]

You did a great job Jenn!! What color dye would that lichen make?

[@BozardsInAlaska]

From Asia: With Lobaria Oregana you get a range of lovely browns. You can shift the color a bit by changing your mordants for mushrooms only. Learn more about dyeing with lichen and mushrooms in the book by reading Bessette’s book A Rainbow Beneath my Feet: A Mushroom Dyers Field Guide

Thanks!

What part of the state are you ladies picking in? I live near Denali Park entrance and McKinley Village. Do you ever pick Cantwell?

[@estelam4943]

Nice woods! Blessings 😃

[@akbychoice]

Yes, the fall of smell. When the berries get pungent, the one smell of fall I don’t like. The wood structure might be a cubby set for catching lynx.

[@akbychoice]

You can use the old blackened mushrooms for dyeing traps too. Use to use walnut husks for dyeing traps.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

Wow! So interesting! Always appreciate your AK knowledge

[@akbychoice]

BozardsInAlaska wish I was still there.

[@saigeharrison3450]

Awesome! Next time, mushrooms 😉

[@truckerbaty7425]

This lady needs to make like a field guide... I would buy it!

[@tanyamarie248]

Hey it's Katelyn! Tanya McDonalds daughter. What time does church start ? Also, I love this video im thinking about going mushroom hunting in the future. I don't really like mushrooms but I think it's so satisfying to find your own food.

[@BozardsInAlaska]

10am :) Can’t wait to meet you!

[@jennbozard4613]

So I’m not as good with the camera as you are... but what an experience!

[@BozardsInAlaska]

🤣 You did great honey!

[@justinbanta4132]

I love eating g cranberries of the plant. Don't be so ignorant
