Yes Id say gyms judging from just about everything, you can see the orange/brown spore print on the annulus in some of the pics.
As well as the scaly pileus.

Those are def "big laughers" bro!!! - Nice f'n finds!!

Also if you put a few in the fridge overnite you might get more greenish blue bruising on them - id be cool to see and post up here!! Awesome

i normally see my flushes begin in 70's and last all fall when it gets into the 30's easy. so best case, i would say upper 50's to lower 70's best conditions, i find they dont like too warm weather.

You ask what state im in....i gotta laugh ..WI bro - i find mine based on dates mainly - my spots pop up on the same weeks every year twice a season - first at end of june-early july - then again in mid-late september !! My gyms fruit like clockwork !! if its dry they will simply abort or shrivle up - i found this fall that watering my spots helps them greatly The shot of big laughers in my signature wouldn't have gotten near that size this fall if i didn't water them - it was soooo dry - then the end of sept brought much rain - and i found alot of new spots too.....Great finds bro - - Keep it up ps. don't wuss out- i wouln't wana make anyone go toooo far - 12 dry gr and you won't miss it!! - Its mellow and natural - very happy!!!

Good to know. I stumbled on them at work I did not have my hunting gear with me. That's kinda stupid of me because I find most of my shrooms while working. Its not good to tear up mycelium.
