Morel Mushrooms Have Arrived at Wagonhammer RV Park & Campground

The “Mystic Morel Mushroom” Is probably the hottest subject around Wagonhammer as we chat in the lodge or by the campfire. The delectable morel is a byproduct of our forest’s of last year as the morel thrives from the nutrients of the charcoal.

We have a most interesting group of mushroom seekers staying at Wagonhammer seeking the gourmet morel for both personal and commercial uses. I tasted my first morel and do agree that this tiny mushroom has a musty very intense flavor which I really do enjoy. I enjoyed the morel sautéed in butter and garlic and also in a tempura batter. My favorite presentation was a morel and chanterelle cream of mushroom soup. My friend Lea Rae and I lunched at our Salmon Odd Fellows Bakery and decided it was the best mushroom soup ever tasted. The chef had freshly picked the mushrooms the same morning. Their breads fresh from the brick ovens are also the best.

Yes I am now a morel affectionate. Again something good comes from something not so good as our fires of last year.

Summer has arrived and we are preparing for the warm, leisurely days and wonderful long evenings by the Salmon Riverbank. We have already had a host of interesting guests.

A first for Wagonhammer was a “Boaterhome”. The Casebeers stopped by Wagonhammer for an evening on route to the Alaskan Inner Passage coming from Florida They enjoyed their spot right on the Salmon river enjoying the boat’s deck and a good night’s sleep in their very own cabin with the Salmon River’s music to soothe the soul.

Our tepees are up for the season and the reservations are happening. I always hear the excitement in the voices as they are awaiting a new venture and experience. Reservations are good and we look forward to meeting new guests and our many Be Backs.
