I saw them by the creative arts building at College of the Redwoods eureka campus. There were by pine and spruce trees. There was a chalciporus piperatoides mushroom growing right by it, literally adjacent from it. The odor was indistinct when I tried to smell it. It had a volva that was very white at the bottom of it's stipe. The spore deposit was white when I took it home to look at it. I later used my microscope to look at the spores underneath it and they were ellipsoid looking. There was a partial veil. The cap was convex and it had universal veil warts that were old but still visible. The gills were finely attached. The stipe was thick at the apex and all the way down and very cylindrical.
