I'm getting a spore print now, and I'm pretty sure I'll have a lot more in a few days. I'll keep the updates coming.

Gotcha, you may need to travel to wetter areas to find them. That’s how it is where I am (California). They mainly grow in the coastal mountains here.

But I think BC generally has more rain the California, right?

That's the plan this year, get into some areas I don't usually go and do it as frequently as possible. I am always checking iNat and MO to see if anyone posts Cantharellus in the region, even if people tend to be secretive about that sort of information.

Southern and coastal BC can get a lot of precipitation but a lot of the central/southern interior can be very arid, and I believe the Okanagan is a desert. Most of our rain typically falls in October/November.

Oh right I forgot about that one desert area. If that’s where you are then you will probably need to travel like I mentioned.

Thankfully, I am not, I can barely take the heat here.
