      Thanks! These were the first I had found in 5 years! The only other times I saw morels were twice in 2017. Posted 3 years ago, modified 3 years ago

        Woow! some alikes -Morchella conica- are supposed to also be around here but indeed they are not easy to find (I never saw one).
        I will have to check the places mentioned here:

        and maybe I will be lucky too :-)         Posted 3 years ago
