One of my favorite aspects of hunting is being able to harvest mushrooms as I explore and hunt for big game throughout western Washington.
Chanterelles are some of the best-tasting and widely available fall mushrooms with a season that can go from September all the way into December depending on where you are.
With my 2021 elk hunting season now being over, I get to write about and share some of the many lessons learned and stories from the woods. I know I basically didn’t touch the blog or YouTube channel during this period as I was trying to balance being in the woods, family obligations and joys of having a new puppy in the house.
I did keep my IG/FB followers mostly informed of how things were going though (pacificnwbestlife on IG and facebook.com/pnwbestlife on FB). Read on if you wish to learn about the shot I took on an elk during the season.
