m desoto park and wilson island has more mushroom hunters than anywhere in the state and the poison ivy is the worst there than anywhere try some other spots like viking lake in red oak or look at locations for public areas in loess hills and if you do hunt desoto get there first thing when they open as you have more competition there than you can deal with.remember viking lake next week after heat this weekend.
