Hey y'all,

I have been lurking for around half of a year and figured I might as well make an account and introduce myself! I might only know a small few of you in person but I'm excited to become a part of the community. My name is a reference to morel mushrooms which applies to my interest in fungi at large.

Alongside childhood trips into the BWCA and Quetico I also worked up in/near the BWCA for a couple seasons and still reside in MN. After I complete school and save up on money I would love to spend a whole season exploring what I can of canoe country.

I am unsure of how often I will post around here but I love to read people's stories, about the local history, philosophies, and general discussions. Maybe I will comment in on a photo contest and a general discussion here and there. I think this is a really special part of modern day's internet that still deals so closely with people and a place so thanks for having me.

Come on down to Madison, WI on the weekend of March 11-12th and attend Canoecopia -- more specifically, attend the BWCA dinner. There, you will be able to network with many of us (the food's pretty good too :).

Glad you're here! There's a bunch of shroomers on this board. Looking forward to your adventures.

We all have to believe in something. I believe I'll go paddle.

HighnDry, I appreciate the invite and it does sound like a really cool event to see all of the gear and boats and of course to meet everyone! I don't think it's in the cards this year but I'm thinking I will be able to make it next year and future years once I'm done with school.
