Went out for some early scouting at my favorite hunting grounds and was pleasantly surprised to find chanterelles already up and tons of little ones begging for rain. These were found on west facing slopes in Mt. Hood National Forest at 2400ft.
These chanterelles look perfect don't they!
 BUT ALAS!!
 
anyone know wtf is happening to these chanterelles? I can't bring myself to eat these.
some babies for coming weeks
hiding in the duff
unknown to me but beautiful
and the chanterelle bounty. not bad for the weather we've had.
 
Get out there people the season is here!

I've seen those knobby top on chants before. Didn't stop me from eating them! Your unknown looks like a Coltricia species. Nice finds!

I found some two days ago in Ohio that looked like that, I asked about it in a thread but never got an answer to that question.

Maybe a rosecomb formation.

Thanks Alan! Never heard of rosecomb. makes sense...these are along old logging roads going back over 100 years. I'm definitely NOT going to eat any rosecombed chanterelles.
http://www.americanmushroom.org/bestpractices_IPM_Stem.htm
"Rosecomb-Distortions, lumps and gross malformations occur on the mushrooms. Often gills are present on the top leading to the name rosecomb. Cause: Contamination of the substrate with oil, diesel or distillate fumes."
