OS Grid areas: SU3611
Weather: The day brought torrential rain and together with cold strong winds following a week which had still to see any significant frost.
New Records:
New to Hampshire: Ramaria eumorpha
Report: (Roger Newton): It was a very good turnout considering the atrocious weather conditions. This was a new site for the group and although the group only forayed for less than ninety minutes almost fifty specimens were found. The species common to unimproved grassland were in abundance including eight different Hygrocybes; but rarities were also unearthed such as Ramaria eumorpha found by Eric and the striking Geoglossum cookeanum found by Chris Roberts. It was a very interesting site but on the day in question everyone was very pleased to have been back in their warm and dry homes by midday.
