Most of it looks pretty good, I just trimmed off the stuff that was old. It smells delicious. There were a couple of tiny baby ones growing, that I'll try to get back to in the next couple of weeks. I found it near Estacada, OR.

Remember where you found it. Those will come back on the same tree year after year. Mrs rabbit and I have picked over a hundred pounds of those this season in Washington State. You'll probably get another flush this year as well. Last year, I picked a five pound specimen near christmas when there was over a foot of snow on the ground already. They start appearing in August if there's been a rain. RR

This is the second year I've hunted that spot for the Hericium. There are at least 4 different logs with them along a trail that is only about 1.25 miles. It's a sweet hike. Last year I also found some hedgies, but I think it was too early and we haven't had enough rain lately to find any.
