Take Hwy 42 north (winding through town) until it meets County Hwy O.
Take County Hwy O until you reach Point Beach State Park.
Our foray will start from the parking lot just inside the park entry point at 10:00 a.m.

We do not ID mushrooms through this website.
If you are in need of an ID consider uploading quality photos with multiple views of your specimen and descriptions of your find to Mushroom Observer or iNaturalist including our projects or post in Wild Food Wisconsin or Mushroom Identification Group.

If you contact us and provide a way to get back to you, we may be able to provide suggestions for more identification resources you can use. You are always responsible for your own decisions taken on the basis of identification resources.
