It is a shame they went from $350 a pound to $1.00 now. Pickers have to stop selling these for peanuts in order for a change.

Pine mushroom (Matsutake) picking in the Nass area close to Terrace BC Canada.

Song is: "I believe" - Joe Satriani

  • @Discokid715 Its a marten AKA Pine Marten.

  • I love picking pine mushrooms, it's gotta be the best "Easter Egg Hunt" ever. All that beauty and serene quietness of the woods, and the profit is just a bonus. :)

  • @brigittewatts - but did you know that selling your mushrooms for $2-3 a lb. ruins the chances of getting a fair price for every picker.

  • @picaticatara - fruiting body of a fungus - the most common definition of the word 'mushroom'. It even has the classic 'mushroom' shape.

  • nice mushroom but the music is priceless :)

  • I think you just proved they are too common to be expensive. And they don't taste that good.

  • @bluephosi this is not a mushroom it is a tuber fungus

  • satch kicks ass!

    

  • you,r a lucky m;f ,did you know that?

  • Too bad you were late on this day....WOW! Great scenes though...love the Martin vlip, great tracking on the camera...Many nice buttons afterward opposed to all the flags earlier in the vid....found a juicy 11 ouncer button in the first 5 minutes that will never see Japan.... too bad the song is so negative...haha...WE CAN CHANGE THINGS!!! Sucks, there are so many cowards that don't want to cough up one crappy season of shit pay to fix it.....
