What the gently caress, there’s a mushroom thread?? And here I’ve only been posting about mushrooms in the psychedelic thread like a loving idiot.

I’m in the PNW and am hoping we have more of a fall than we did last year. Might go out to see if anything is growing from the ice melts but otherwise waiting for the rain to return. 2021 fall season was so fun for me but 2022 was pretty sad (except for a bunch of matsutake. That ruled).

Mt Hood represent

Albatrellus


Hello my little rainbow chanterelles.

Went with a friend who found some other dye mushrooms (forgot to take pics) but saw some coral shrooms, conchs, and a slime mold (dog puke? Moon poop? Bad name).

Saw a few russula and a bolete stem. It was so hot & dry in this area last year I’m happy to see this growth!

Spent most of Saturday at Mt Adams:


Look at these cuties! Don’t know what it’s called.

Violet chanterelles/pig’s ear.

Don’t know what this is???

Dog vomit slime mold

VERY young & juicy dyer’s polypore

Old reishi?

Cute little fir-cone mushrooms

Some kinda russula. I did get some shrimp russula but they were much darker (and had blush pink on the stems)

Alpine jelly cones (they taste like forest water) :3:

Found some small lobsters!!

Also found a few chanterelles and hawk’s wing mushrooms but didn’t take pictures.

It’s a wild year for matsutake:



Above pic has a matsu and a couple Sarcodon fuscoindicus (violet hedgehog), which is highly coveted for textile dye, which are also having a bumper year.
More fusco:

Hygrocybe conicodes:

Some snuggling admirable bolete:

Witches’ butter

Cats tongue (I wanna candy these!!)

Cortinarius smithii (used for dyeing)

Cortinarius violaceus, the goth mushroom.


Also found tons of Hygrophorus bakerensis which smells so strongly of sweet almonds. Didn’t take any photos but did shove it in people’s faces and tell them to take a whiff.
