Improving your iNat fungi observations

We are starting to see Spring fungi in abundance thanks to the rain! One great way to improve your observations is to use iNaturalist to locate flushes of fungi that others have recently found so you can get first-hand experience with how these things can appear. This iNat observation is on a hillside overlooking Crescent Water (right next to the weather station) that is showing a large flush with couple of coprinoid species and what I believe are some psathyrella. I've created this step-by-step guide to locating fungi in the field using your phone.

I'm also seeing a few observations that are less thorough than we'd like, and my sense is that folks are still new to all this. So I'm putting in this link to a document we developed for the Mycoblitz that summarizes guidelines for good quality observations that we can include in the FunDiS project.
