Salvage the Summer Mushrooms?

[Johnsfolly]

After fishing the upper Current river, I found a patch of golden chanterelles that yielded about 1.5 to 2 lbs of fresh mushrooms. I carried them in my fishing net. These were a fair number of large mushrooms. As I got into some cedar groves with moss beneath and saw a number of red items. Turns out there were cinnabar chanterelles under the cedars. Then I found another patch and then another patch. Since these mushrooms small enough to fall through the holes in my net, I didn't pick that many after the third or fourth patch. Also fighting spiders everywhere I went, I just stopped going after any red or orange patches.

With enough fresh mushrooms, I was able to make wild mushroom ravioli. (see the What's cooking thread). It's been my best summer for mushrooming and it may continue. We just keep getting rain, which should keep them popping through the fall.
