I’m trying to find someone to help me with morel mushroom hunting in Colorado. I’m 71 but active and would appreciate any classes or hikes or something so I might be able to do this. I’m recently widowed and don’t want to just go wandering alone looking without understanding more about where to go etc. I was exposed a little bit to this adventure in Indiana but only one time.
