My friend with whon I'm going has over 20 years experience, so he's going to help me figure out the no-nos. Also, just picked up a field guide to wild edible plants of Western Washington, and have my eye on a very good pocket guide (with full color pictures) of our local fungi. Hoping to eventually get to where we can find some Oregon/Washington truffles as well!
