About the Author
Kristen and Trent Blizzard, self proclaimed "mushroom geeks", have been trekking the woods with their crazy doodles, Benzie and Lu, mostly with mushrooms in mind for just over ten years now. At first a hobby, the hunt for fungi quickly became nothing short of an obsession for these two. They tend to follow mushrooms seasonally and are lucky to enjoy yearly hunting expeditions in CA, CO, WI, OR and Western burn sites. They are not mycologists, but love to utilize the science behind edible mushrooms to help them locate prime terrain. Kristen was introduced to wild edibles and mushrooms via a science center in Colorado. Kristen thinks of mushrooming as hiking with purpose, and loves all of the peripheral benefits--time in the forest, travel and exploration of new myco terrain, connection with myco friends and community members, and even exercising those nutty dogs. Trent has taken his passion for fungi to the next level as the sitting President of the North American Mycological Association. He enjoys engaging with the community on a regular basis and supporting mycological societies around the country. Together, they are the creators of www.modern-forager.com, digital burn morel maps, and authors of the book Wild Mushrooms: A Cookbook and Foraging Guide. Their fondest wish is that in some small way, they can help you discover the same joys of nature that they cherish.
