Most of my spots are on high ground or hills so the leaves may be washed away thus making the mushroom finding easier.
Jdawg and I went to one pof these spots after a big gully washerand had about 500 mushrooms to clean up that night, could have had more but it was a long hike back to tthe Bronco II and we only had so many bags with us.

that's something I noticed too, the rain and floods have washed away a lot of the built up leaf litter, that stop the new small plants and brush from growing, so this should be the start of a bunch of new growth, underbrush and future thickets.
