If you are finding yellows you may have missed the half morels...they are usually between the blacks and yellows....good luck.

I only know of two kinds around here. The one I showed you which is edible, (true morel)and one that's a different color and poisonous. (false morel) They can be difficult for the inexperienced eye to tell apart .

All of the false morels I have seen look absolutely nothing like the real ones and if you read up a bit you would know that the true morels are hollow the entire way through except for the ones with the cottony stuff (some say they are safe some don't) but one like beefsteak look nothing like them IMO

Oh I am about to make a mean thing of fried potatoes in a few minutes. I love ramps and mushrooms thank goodness for the wild things to forage for.

Forgot to add this for people unfamiliar with ramps
Allium tricoccum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

All I know is that there's only one variety of true and edible morel around here; the one I showed you.
