Title	Notes	Entry Date
Cut Cortinaria	Notice how the inside of the cortinaria stains a purplish color when cut. This mushroom might make a good dye.	05/24/2005
Gills of Armillaria Straminea	Notice the gills of the armillaria straminea are a beautiful yellow color.	05/24/2005
Calypso Bulbosa	Also known as "Fairy Slipper", this is a fairly rare mountain wildflower that is an orchid. This photo was submitted by Fred Johnson. He took the photo near Red Feather Lakes, probably sometime in mid-Summer. We get quite a few of these on the cabin land down near the creek. Thanks for Fred for this great photo!	05/25/2005
Stemless Evening Primrose	Another great photo from Fred Johnson. He is calling this a Stemless Evening Primrose. Photo taken along Sportsman Lake Road on May 23rd, 2005.	05/26/2005
Tucked into a Tree Trunk	I don't know what these are, but it looks like something walked by and took a few bites out of them! These mushrooms were nicely tucked into the old tree trunk. Photo was taken on 8/21/2004.	05/26/2005
Unidentified	I don't know what these are, but just from the color alone, I wouldn't taste them! But, what beautiful color! Photo taken on 8/28/2004.	05/26/2005
Oyster Mushroom	Here is a solitary oyster mushroom growing on a fallen Aspen tree. Photo was taken on 8/28/2004. The mushroom was probably in its prime a week before that.	05/26/2005
Unidentified	I don't know what this "jelly like" mushroom is. Lynne took this photo with a great lighting effect on 8/28/2004.	05/26/2005
Agaricus Amicosus	Amicosus means something like "friendly" in Latin. This is also sometimes called the agricus silvaticus. It grows in pine forests, like the one surrounding our cabin. In fact, this specimen was found within 50 feet of the cabin. It has pink gills when young and stains pink. This is a great edible, and we tend to have it with morning omelettes. The familiar "button mushrooms" you get at the grocery are from the agaricus family.	05/27/2005
