An adventure in the woods... to the Bolete Kingdom!

Hello all. So in case you can't tell from the name, I'm from Oregon. I live in the Willamette Valley. I went up to the woods today (this place around where I live called Mary's Peak) and went looking for Chantrelles, which I found plenty of. However along the way I found myself quite an assortment of other cool fungi that I would like to try and get ID'd if possible. I have a stab at a few but.. help is always nice. I want to mainly find out if any of these boletes are edible!
So I arrived at my spot with my buddy, and we had given ourselves about 2 and a half hours to hunt (my buddy was on a time limit), but we basically knew right where some Chantrelles were since we had been here before. However the other mushroom life hadn't been flourishing quite this much, even 4 days ago... I immediately spotted boletes everywhere! There were, from what I could tell, 2 different kinds that I spotted, probably even more though. Hopefully my pictures can suffice to get some proper ID's on these suckers...
They sorta tried to blend in... These first ones were the more yellow variety..







And then, there were the more brown shaded Boletes...
  
  



And than here looked to be a bunch of Bolete pins?

Besides that there was a bunch of others...
1.What I suspect, could be an Aminita?
  
2. Ganoderma oreganese?

3. Something delicious?
(What I suspect he was eating...) 
4. I suspect most of these are Mycenas?
      (I like this one.. It was pretty red) 
5. Psathyrella?
 
6. Some polypore...

7. And another unknown polypore..

8. Psathyrella, most likely, but kinda looks on the verge of a psilocybe... I'm sure it's not.
 
9. Hmmm... is it covered in rain? No.. it wasn't raining... 
 
10. Wtf?
  
11. And there were quite a few of these. While there may be different species here, I suspect they are probably the same genus...
    
12. I have no clue... But it was pretty big.
 
15. Carpet mushrooms! There are obviously two completely different genus' here, but they were literally everywhere carpeting the ground...
a.  b. 
15. Than these guys were pretty prevalent around the conifers.. They were really big and I saw quite a few. Any ideas??
   
16. Oh... and finally, what I went there for.. 
   
I coulda got way more picks, but they're really just not the most photogenic mushroom to be honest... Kinda like, you've seen one, you've seen em ell you know? Heh.. anyway... The harvest! !   To be honest this is about a quarter of what I could have probably found. I was literally passing up chanterelles at one point because I lost my buddy and had to walk all the way back to the car to find him again. It was a tragic side story. And my buddy found easily as many as I have chopped up here. I can't wait to go back up! 
Phew.. long post, eh? Anyway, if I get any ID's than it will be quite appreciated. If not, oh well.. hopefully you enjoy the pics! Later peeps...

I think your first bolete is Suillus lakei. The second bolete could be Fuscoboletinus ochraceoroseus but that is just a wild guess and is probably wrong, lol.
As for the others -
#3 looks like it could be a Russula sp. #6 looks like Ganoderma applanatum #9 could be Ischnoderma resinosum #10 looks like a Lentinellus sp. #15b might be Coprinus plicatilis And the second #15 that is misnumbered I suppose looks like it could be either a Russula sp. or maybe a Lactarius sp
Hope that helps and remember these are all just guesses, don't go eating anything on my word, lol.

Your second Mycena looks like a Conocybe.

I thought that too but I wasn't confident enough to post it. I've never really found many Conocybe's around here.

Thanks again Allan.. your like a godamn mushroom identifying machine! So you are saying that all those boletes that I have pictures are the same species? Interesting.
Has anyone here eatin Suillus lakei? Is it worth picking?
And regarding #8, I guess I should maybe look a little closer at those when I go back up. You think they actually could be acyive? Worth a print at least?
Thanks again allan..

Yes all the boletes are the same.
# 8 looks a little like the Psilocybe pelliculosa/silvatica group, but its hard to say from just that picture.

Good to know. Perhaps I will bring a few home next time and print them...
