    Use the phrase "dangerous lookalikes" in your searches.

    As a beginner, you'll be safer foraging for a specific species. Finding random shrooms and then trying to see if it's edible is risky. There's a lot of variation and bad info too. Better to have a firm species type and just...

    It's an elfin saddle and that's about all you need to know. Definitely looks like a false morel, if that's what you mean by morel. Looks like a gyromitra and some of the saddles actually do contain gyromitrin.

  • I say no. Goblins, if that's all you're doing, is not worth the drive over from Moab. Goblins is relatively small and once the novelty of seeing so many hoodoos wears off, you spent hours driving for not very much.
