when it frosts they boom, water was frozen out front a few mornings ago so I crawled through a tanoak jungle(hence bad lighting) early this morning, I found about 80 pins that I left to get bigger, only found 4 matured ones. They definitely like to grow at the base of young tanoaks much like Cantharellus californicus.
I agree, everything is going apeshit, I harvested a half grocery bag of bug-free(rarity?) oysters the other day.

The ones on the bottom right are hedgehogs, Hydnum repandum.
We passed by a lot of waterlogged chanterelles, but the few hedgehogs we saw were in perfect condition.

This just in from my recent Santa Cruz mountain Mushroom hunt...lots of chanterelles, boletes are on their way out but a few butters, some oysters, lions mane, many other lbm's and such. Enjoy...
I'm calling the chanterelles "Ravine Cuisine"
 Old Butter Boletes
 Orange Jelly
 Chanterelle Harvest
 Lions Mane
 California Chanterelle
 Manzanita Bolete
The hunt lasted about 3 hours, much of which was scouting and general time wasting. Most were found in ravines and in and around Live Oak and Hazel. They're busting out right now!

That last one looks like Boletus Flaviporus moreso than Leccinum manzanitae.
The bright yellow tubes and lack of blackish scabers give it away.

Nice wyattb. Fleshtemple, manzanita boletes have white to greyish pores. Also I think what you have in the first picture is a suillus

Those "old butters" very well could have been suillus, although the stipe bruised blue when broken over. They were very mushy, so I didn't spend much time ID'ing them. Either way, the boletes are done in my area.

Hey guys i posted this in the PNW question for Cyan hunters in the PNW thread but its dead over there. If temps drop to below freezing (no more Cyan weather) and abort fruitings, will patches fruit again given condtions return to 40-45 range and wet (Cyan weather) for a sufficient amount of time?
