I think you have a species of Galerina. If that is true they are toxic.

They look like Cortinarius to me.

Quite possible, however in all the pictures of similar Galerinas I'm looking at, they all show the annulus, whereas mine have bare stipes.

Those do look similar, however I'm not able to find anything that's a match. The closest I can see is Cortinarius Muscigenus, however they don't look as similar when immature.

The annulus may fallen off That's why I was unsure of my guess actually. It seems unlikely to me that all of them would have washed away completely.
Did you try using a key for Cortinarius species? It's quite a large genus

I agree with Ganzig. They look like a Cortinarius. There are thousands of species of Cortinarius so getting a species level identification can be quite a feat.

I find it unlikely that the annulus fell off, I collected 4 of them, and none had it. I also saw immature mushrooms that I'm fairly sure are the same species (about 50 feet away), and none of them demonstrated it either (there was a patch of about 60).
I'm trying to use MycoKey online, however sometimes when I further specify it includes even more genuses/species to the point where I have every field filled and over 500 matched genuses - obviously incorrect. Do you have a key you'd recommend?
