I was able to get out over the weekend and snagged some monster smooth chanterelles, a decent handful of gorgeous cinnabar chanterelles and some bonus Strobilomyces.

A peek into a tan canvas bag shows a pile of yellow smooth chanterelles, orange cinnabar chanterelles and a few black, hairy old-man-of-the-woods mushrooms.

I've never seen those black ones. Where are you from?

    I'm in Pennsylvania, USA. They're Strobilomyces strobilaceous, an edible black bolete known as old-man-of-the-woods.

    those shits are why people don't pick mushrooms: "oh yeah this thing that looks like death incarnate? perfectly edible. Noononononono don't touch the one that looks like a champignon it'll erase you from the fabric of the universe!"
