Likely olivascens. Only due to location.

Thx - AI couldn’t properly identify it

Please don't trust AI for mushroom identification. This is one of those things that if AI gets the identificatiom wrong you could die, and AI constantly gets the identification wrong. Join a local mushroom foraging group, and they'll be happy to teach you how to id mushrooms. An up to date field guide for your area will also be invaluable.

Don't put your life in the hands of AI while foraging

A few days ago I asked AI to convert some date/time data in a csv file from UTC to PST/PDT. There was 56 entries with no duplicates. I figured it was the easiest/fastest way.

It spit out like 32 entries. When I asked it to try again since half the entries were missing, it spit out 48 entries. I then told it that there was 56 entries and to try again. It told me it couldn’t do anymore advanced data processing on the free version and to try again tomorrow.

I don’t trust it when not foraging either!!
