Is it one year only or does it last for more then one year? Does each years harvest drop and if so by how much. In other words, how many years is the picking worth the effort?

I have no burns in my area but I will be going through burn areas in my travels throughout the spring.
I don't know much about picking the burn areas. Since you don't have burn areas... if anyone around there has a mixed bush quarter that cattle use there won't be much underbrush. Sometimes morels grow good in that kind of bush.
