Welcome to the Shroomery!

A photograph would help. They do sound like boletes, but without additional information, it's impossible to tell what they are exactly.

Haha cool.

I see them in yards here in Portland every fall. I have seen a lot of birch bolete this year too.

:super:

Sorry if it seemed like I was saying it is a birch bolete. I wasn't.

I agree that it is not a king either.

Stipe is a bit too thin for B. edulis, though I'd say this is definitely a Boletus. When you cut it, is it white or yellow? Any blue bruising inside or on the pores? Does it taste bitter?

It lacks the grey or brown scabres found on the stipe of Leccinums, so I think we can exclude that genus. Can't think of any Suillus looking like that either, and it's awfully big for a Suillus, so I would think Boletus is a safe guess.

BTW, OP, you never told us your general geographic area, that would also help. Depending on where you found them, I'd say these things look a lot like Boletus badius.

I agree... need more...  geographic area? ...bruising? ...odor?

Cant see reticulation in the picture, but assuming that there is...

Yeah, the suillus and leccinum was me running out of ideas.....

All I could come up with was boletus auripes but the habitat doesn't match... unless perhaps there are more than just spruce around...

:shrug:

Well, I hope they are edible, cause it looks like Tigerlily was ready to eat them!
She took Shermans opinion I think...

However, there is a net-pattern (like on a cantelope) on the stipe (not as deep or dark as on a cantelope)

hmmm... white... then its not Boletus ornatipes for sure...

I am stumped on this one...

Everthing seems to match King Boletus, Except the surface colors and shape...

I have no idea, I give up. lol

You mean a reticulate pattern? Can you take a picture of it?

Use the :macrofunction: on your camera to do this.

OK, scratch Boletus badius then (that's shown on your 123pilze link, but those things should exhibit bluing and turn black when cooked). I'm thinking B. fibrillosus (not commonly present in the East though) or B. subcaerulescens now (that one would have blue-staining pores though), though you may in fact have an atypical B. edulis here.

In any case, a non-bitter, non-bluing, yellow-pored white Boletus should be edible and choice.
