Cap: ~2.5 cm diameter, caramel brown, smooth and slimy, etc.

Indeed, but quite some amount of that is probably due to people being told for 30 years that they aren't common in such environments.
I bet they like twig covered slopes, drainages and trailsides as much as P. pelliculosa does. I was once told even those were far more common around clearcuts and were not very common otherwise. My experience in washington and oregon proved otherwise.

Is it an unusual environment because it's not a bed of manmade wood chips? I've only found two patches so far, but one of them doesn't have any wood chips. They're growing out of the twigs and small branches that have fallen from the surrounding Douglas firs.

A little, but probably not as unusual we we often say.
