Wow these are beautiful...but, what are they?? I can tell they must be a psilocybe, but I've been focusing all my attention lately on P cyanescens, so am definitely ignorant about others. Are these P cyanofriscosa by chance?
I'm glad to see your season is starting to pick up, all you people by the bay.
Peace

They look more like placeholders for photos that once could be seen. 
But considering Alan's video posts, it probably were Ps. cyanofriscosas...

They are cyanofriscosa.
I used all the bandwidth on my photobucket account so it will be a couple days before it resets and shows the pictures again.
For now you can see the images here:

What a sexy mushroom. Do they grow naturally like that (in such high numbers), or did this patch have a little human help?

some of the smaller ones were found already cut and cleaned, dropped in a fumble by some lazy/greedy hunters.

I hate that. You inspired me to check some of my spots today, and someone already beat me to them!!! They left big stinking holes in the ground, those boletes must have been HUGE.
At any rate, found some nice grisettes as well as some boletes. Uploading pictures is almost too much for my internet connection, so they may have to wait til tomorrow.

Weird.
You should cut off the yellow spots, they tend to spread throughout the mushroom flesh quickly if you don't remove it all. It seems like bacteria.

indeed, the brown is bugrot as well, this was how it looked right after I walked through the door, some of those needed serious hackjobs, especially that giant cap, I already ditched the stem in the field.
bug trails? no biggie. bug trails with discoloration? no bueno! thanks for watching out

Damn time to go out tomorrow morning!
A friend told me he approached some restaurants with boletes, only to hear "Should have called an hour ago, we just bought 12 pounds" from every one.
Nice finds scout! A little patience pays off.

Just returned from a one and a half day foray along the northern California Coast.... Boletus edulis var. grandedulis is EVERYWHERE. More than we could pick, much less carry or fit in the car. We saw other hunters all along the side of the road in Salt Point. And that was just a Thursday, in the rain. I can not imagine how many harvesters will be out during the weekend!
