Squaw root is also known as Cancer root since it’s a parasite that feeds off oak and beech tree roots. I have a lot of both of those trees. It doesn’t affect the trees much, so there really isn’t much to worry about, except it can make your heart skip a beat when you’re looking for morels. ![Upside-down face :upside_down: 🙃](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f643.png)
It’s not edible.
