Oregon findings pt. 1:

Yesterday I'd gone out shrooming with a couple friends of mine in a pretty large reserve behind the nearby high school. They wanted to get into picking and it was their first time and all, so I showed them around a few areas I was familiar with. It was pretty hilarious actually, because every mushroom they saw they assumed were psychedelic and they were all like, "DUDE OMG SHROOMS LIKE WOW." every time they found something. I really don't think we found any actives, though. So I'll just post some pics of what we got. No habitat shots, however; I forgot to bring my camera.
There were a bunch of things we didn't pick; huge polypores the size of a PC tower; some small white/creme-colored mushies with infundibuliform caps on decaying stumps; dark brown, umbonate pinky-sized saprobes; all that sort of thing.
This is around the Portland, Oregon area, in an oak/pine forest with a creek running through it.
Most of what we found I'm positive are some sort of coprinus. Coprinus silvaticus, I think, but I could be wrong. I'm not too familiar with what grows in Oregon, but I try, really.
The others are fairly typical LBM's with rusty-brown spores, and I still have no idea what they are. The stipes are all bare.
My friends and I will be going into the forest again probably a couple times more this week, so I'll post about what I find later. I should get some habitat shots, too. It's a pretty nifty-looking forest.
Some of the coprinoids.
I just thought it looked cool.
LBM's. The cap with no stem on the center-right had white spores. Every other had rusty-brown.
We picked about two ounces more of the coprinoids, but they were all broken and nasty looking so I didn't include them in the pictures. Instead, I put them in an airtight glass container with some water, shook it all up until it was pitch black with maybe half a gallon of sporey liquid, and dumped it all in my jackass neighbor's yard.

"shook it all up until the liquid was pitch black with maybe half a gallon of sporey water, and dumped it all in my jackass neighbor's yard."
As bad as that is to do, I find it very funny! Especially if he's one of those weed freak neighbors that gripe about dandelion's, exc.

It's okay, my neighbor is a douche.
He's always knocking on my door after 6 telling me to quit playing my guitar so loud. It's an acoustic without an amp and I can't even hear it when it's on my lap, so he can go blow a goat. I'm a musician goddamnit.

You should be able to play loud music at least until ten (check your local noise law) and acoustic at any time of the day. It may be time to plant some stinkhorns.

No way jose. Slayer is against the law in this house. We rock out to Death Cab for Cutie. And Bjork.

Slayer isn't brutal enough. A Lamb of God tribute would be much more effective.

maybe if you were a good musician he wouldn't tell you to quit playing your weakass acoustic.
why did you pick so many of those mushrooms?
