**ID Request, Full(ish) Description** Amateur Picker Needs Expert Advice

Hello friends. Amateur picker here. This is my first fall season in the PNW, and today I made my first potential find.
However, I want to get your expert opinion before I do anything drastic.
Below are some photos of the caps, stems, gills, and a two-hour spore print. If the print isn't clear enough, it's still sitting there so I can post another later. Below those is a species description.
At first I thought it was a P. caerulipes, but now I'm not sure. Thoughts?




Habitat: Base of deciduous tree, near organic debris, in a mixed forest near water.
Gills: Ucinate, crowded, whitish, then turns to brown
Stem: Whitish-yellow, slightly flexuose
Cap: Shallow cinnamon umbo, whitens outward with dark bruising, convex to broadly convex
Bruising: Dark brown or black
General location: PNW, coastal woods

So probably not deadly? 
The print looks purplish to me, not sure how it looks via photo alone

If they're Hypholoma fasciculare then they're toxic... and they're too beat up to say for sure which Hypholoma they are so definitely don't eat them, they won't make you trip
