#1 found it on the side of a fallen branch/on the forest floor on august 7th 2013 in jedediah smith state park in northern california in a redwood forest. sadly i did not even look underneath the cap to see what the hymenophore looked like. if it had a stem at all it was very short. the cap was covered in little spots of liquid that were light brown. cap was fairly wide about 6-8 inches i'd say... and squishy. when touched it sunk in a little bit and bruised a darker brown than it already was. this mushroom looked like a really large bleeding tooth fungus, so i was wondering if maybe it actually was one but was just exuding a different color liquid?
#2 lots of these little things were in clusters projecting off of the side of a cut redwood log. when touched, a cloud of brown spores puffed off. very very thin black stalk supporting a fingerlike projection of light brown hymenium... discovered on the same day & in the same conifer forest as #1.

for #1, I would say IF this fungus was a toothed fungus, which I see you did not observe, It would be a Hydnellum species very similar to Hydnellum peckii.
Guess we will never know though.

#1 is definitely in the Bankeraceae family and seems to be an old, dried up Hydnellum peckii. they tend to brown as they get old
#2 is def in the Stemonitidae family and looks like classic Stemonitis fusca to me
wait for a TI from cali or the western US tho... I'm only personally familiar with southeastern fungi and have never been to cali besides the LAX airport
