I'm pretty confident that these show the signs, I just really need some opinions to be certain.

Thanks for the reply. I will wait for a few more opinions. The only thing I'm not entirely 100% on is the spore print. It's a very dark color and difficult to distinguish currently. I will allow the spore prints to further form so I can be certain. But they certainly have a purple hue to them.

Forgot to mention that these are from the Pacific Northwest, near the tacoma area. I know from research that cyanescens are suppose to be pretty common.

You got some beautiful cyans there  Try to snip the fungi at the base in the future though. Looks like you may have pulled up some life force mycelium there. Solid find though!

Thanks!
I recall reading that it was a good idea to pull up the base for identification purposes. I believe the justification was that by seeing how the mushrooms grow near each other. But solid advice that I will follow in the future.
Fear not though, what was represented in the pictures was only about a tenth of what I found growing, and that was without my glasses.

Quick update. I got something wrong. The stems are to some extent hollow. It's mostly solid but in the center of the stem there is a gap. It is slightly brown as well, but I'm assuming that is because I picked them 4 hours ago.

Definitely cyans!
Nice find.
Yeah, i would print all of them, or at least ones that look a little "off" compared to others.
If you print, try to spread the spores to new areas 
Nice collection, you are set

The stem of a cyan is hollow in the middle

This is true for some species such as Amanita where the base of the stem can help with identification but is not necessary with this species. Cutting is recommended in this instance.

A little late to print each mushroom I'm afraid. I had already rinsed them and set them to dry before heading out.
I did go over each mushroom 3 or so times though. No fleshy colored stems, all bruising blue, etc. None of them look like Galerinas to me.

Good vibes being sent your way from my end. Hope you enjoy the fruits of your labor! It's always uplifting knowing you found them from nature and dint just buy them from someone. Safe travels.

Cool, sounds like you've got a good grasp on things Hope your trip was fun.
On a side note, why don't you use the stem butts to create your own out door bed? There's plenty of info on the site to help get you started and you could have your own mushrooms that you have grown your self as early as next year
