Lichens and mushrooms

I am emerging from an intensive Northern California lichen idenification frenzy, and am now taking advantage of the prolific fungi production from the robust rains of the last month. Yesterday was a localized pinnacle of fungi sightings at Sugarloaf Ridge. I had the fortune of being in a small group hike, on which the Park Manager accompanied with a scientific collection permit. I did no collecting, but two other scientists were helpful in plucking certain specimens that i found, and even serving as hand models for me. I catalogued about thirty of the specimens that i had some luck in identifying, and posted these to iNaturalist, a sample of which are appended to this journal entry.
