Forgot to mention that the gold berry's keep indefinitely, but do not make good syrup, jelly or even a good topping on pizza....

No, but they make a great meal while conversing about the gold finds.

the only berries I pick are the little round lead ones that I mostly keep finding. Don’t eat those!!

Nor the ones the rabbits and bighorn leave behind...

Almost every time I get a chance to get out there, I have to get some berries, but mainly get some chicken of the woods mushrooms. They grow year round and if you know how to gather them up you won't hurt them and they will continue to grow.

I went with a friend who is quite knowledgeable on mushrooms. He did pick some chicken of the woods. I'm  just not confident enough yet on identifying it to eat them yet.

Down load a picture of it from the internet and when you see a very large growth o a tree look at the picture. They are either on a tree that is dying or at a dead trees base most of the time. They take on the taste of almost anything that you cook them with. Great on steak, chicken, pork, and even if you put them on burgers. I have made soups out of them and use them all the time.

Good luck on finding some and learn how to keep them going.
