shroomydan,
I've tried printing that mushroom. Tried... It was on foil since last night and didn't drop anything noticeable, so the cap is sitting on some white paper now. I don't know if the mushroom was too dried out by the time I got home last night or what.
soooo

Wow, great stuff and photos. You guys look like you had a great time.
The first club thingies look similar to Clavariadelphus pistillaris.
With the mystery ones that it sounds like you tried to print I would have started my guessing with Tubaria. But they're LBMs and would be tough to ID in any case.
The big meaty ones with the nice partial veil look similar to Catathelasma. To verify it, find one with a fully separated partial veil, then look closely and see if it has a double ring.
Those purple ones are weird. Without a spore print color I don't think we'll get far on them.
The orange guys you didn't have any idea on look like Cordyceps militaris to me. That's actually a relatively common member of Cordyceps that parasitizes insect pupae. If you ever find more, try digging *very* carefully down and see if you can unearth the pupa. I've seen one where they encased it in a clear plastic block and it made a great looking pendant.
WoodsCall, try sprinkling a little water over the cap and inverting a bowl or glass over it to raise the humidity. Sometimes you can get some spores out of pretty dry stuff that way.
Happy mushrooming!

Thanks for the IDs ToxicMan.
I thought those orange ones might be Cordyceps but we dug down and didn't find an insect substrate.
Those purple ones are weird. I have never encountered anything like them. They somewhat resemble small purple Russulas I have found in the past, but the prominent umbo distinguishes them. We collected some for spore print, but I left them in the bed of WoodsCall's truck and I think they were lost.
I still think those little brown ones are Psilocybe. They did not bruise blue and they did not smell psilocybian, but the smooth tacky brown cap, general shape, and gill attachment all suggest Psilocybe. The habitat however points away from Psilocybe. They were found growing under hemlock and oak near the edge of a rock cliff at the top of a canyon. I usually find Psilocybes along streams, but the Ps. squamosus was only a few feet away in the the same habitat so...
Hocking Hills is a true gem of South East Ohio. I don't imagine it would be too difficult to find new species there.

Nice photos. I think the big white one that Woodscall is holding maybe a matsutake. But i never scene one IRL.. Was it growing under pine or hemlock?
Nice photos though!

I live in an area of 99.9% pine trees and I've never found a pine mushroom

Excellent finds woodscall and shroomydan!
And are you sure that is a A. muscaria and not a var. formosa?

Thanks GGreatOne234
Amanita muscaria var. formosa is Amanita muscaria. I'm beginning to suspect there is more than one variety of yellow Amanita muscaria around these parts, and I would not be surprised if one day soon all the A. muscarias will be split into a new genus, and what are now considered varieties will assume the place of species.
For now I will just think of them as yellow Amanita muscaria.

They were indeed matsutake.
Tricholoma magnivelare
There may have been some pine up there, but the evergreens were mostly Hemlock.
Hey WoodsCall, we found pine mushrooms.

Did you check to see if the "Matsutake" had that unforgettable spicy smell that is their characteristic? It's the greatest smelling mushroom in my opinion although I hear some forms of T.magnivelare lack this defining feature.
