We found these Common Elfin Saddle fungi growing amongst the moss and forest litter on the Fullerton Loop Trail, Kananaskis, last August. I think these fungi have such a neat name. "The Common Elfin Saddle (Helvella elastica) has a smooth whitish stalk and a greyish to smoky brown cap. It is not as irregularly lobed as two other species (Helvella lacunosa and Helvella crispa) and often looks more "saddle-shaped". From Wikipedia.
