I managed to find some today, not a lot, but good for a few meals. Morels and fried crappie, it's a spring time tradition!
Anyone else finding any?

No pun intended..nope, same thing. I'll pass, thank you.
I've heard that also, and I have a neighbor that's eaten them his whole life, so I give any I find to him. That's one thing I don't want to test my limits on.They say that the false morels....I call them beef steak or red morels... make people sick and advise you not to eat them. I have ate them all my life and have never had any side effects but somone else eating them may not be able to tolerate them and have a "allergic" reaction.
I almost feel bad for you.... except you're in the Alps! I bet that has to be a beautiful place to live!Sigh... we still have 20 inches of snow on the ground here... no morels till late may this year!
In the second pic, mixed with morchella deliciosa I see a gyromitra esculenta in the lower right corner. That was considered edible years ago, but now... better safe than sorry: I’d leave it on the ground next time.
I have heard that chicken of the woods can also have that effect on some small portion of the population.
