I've lurked and followed posts for a long while on multiple forums and have yet to see much in the way of organized yamadori collection. I realize that the local "club" is the best avenue, but I find very few interested parties locally (and I personally have a very hard time making meetings regularly).
I thought it would be nice to begin thinking about/organizing a collecting trip (to a legit location, all done properly) with the help of some of the senior folks on the boards. Ideal times are only 2-3 months away in this area...
Any thoughts? Anyone want to organize?
I am in N. VA, MD, DC area.
Thoughts for locations: powerline right of ways, eroding river/stream banks (lots of those nearer the coast), highway/DOT right of ways, private lands? It wouldn't be too difficult to get permission from some of those sources.
