Photographed along the Park Butte trail, this is the Conifer Coral Fungus, Hericium abietis. This one has been touched with frost or is going by, or it would be pure white.

There haven't been a lot of mushrooms or fungi this year due to the hot dry summer. This is one we found along the Blue Lake trail, the Conifer Coral Fungus, Hericium abietis, edible and supposed to be very tasty.
