Old, dried up bolete of some sort. Nothing special.

Agreed, a bolete. Probably Strobilomyces floccopus, "Old Man of the Woods".

Not sure about that CureCat, but probably impossible to tell. This looks more like an extremely dried out old bolete. The old man of the woods typically has much darker pores, and is pretty much black, not brown. Also, they are surprisingly resilient, doing well even after extended dry spells.

You're right, I should have said "maybe", not "probably". It doesn't look quite right- S. floccopus generally has a light gray cap with dark scales or fibrils on top.
It was just the first thing that came to mind.

I've never seen a bolete (boletus, suillus and similar genera) dry up like that. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, but I'm convinced that it's a species that I haven't seen before.
