The Pacific Northwest has the richest temperate rainforests in the world and much more than its fair share of wild mushrooms.
From Northern California, through Oregon, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska the temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest stretch some 3,600 kilometers from just south of San Francisco Bay, California to northern Kodiak Island and Prince William Sound, Alaska.
Here is a field guide you can use on your iPhone or Android smartphone using the iNaturalist app to identify the mushrooms you discover in the rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.
Identifying and cataloging the mushrooms you find in the forest is a great practice for improving your pattern recognition skills and cultivating eco-mindfulness.
