Brain-like looking mushroom, beige in color, has stalk, no visible gills. Micorrhizal associated fungi. Sited two on an old logging road near the pack forest cabins, open area with sparse canopy coverage, adjacent to grassy area about 30-40 meters away. Trees were mostly deciduous, further into the stand away from open area was coniferous western hemlock vegetation. it was wrapped tightly in old broadleaf leaves probably alder.




Comments & Identifications
I'm guessing V. bohemica based on what looks like cotton wood leaves and twigs on the ground and the color of the fungi. Was there a river or wet area near by?
Yes there were small streams formed at the side of the old logging road where this was found and a small swampy body of water fairly close by. Thanks
