Found in Southwest North Carolina. They were all over root was, really impressive to see.
If anyone is familiar I’d appreciate an ID for my own curiosity.
Found colonizing a root wad of a large tree. I would love an ID.

I can’t help with an ID but my mom used to live in Murphy and I appreciate this little memory of those times ❤️ Lots of chicken of the woods!

I was one of the officer on the Murphy NCANG unit back in the 90s after the Gulf War. Good people.

They are good people! But they also hid Eric Rudolph so they are complicated people. Lots of neat things there. Thanks for your service!

I don’t know your area, but it my area the underside of the caps (specifically gill color and how they attach to the stipe) can be very helpful, even sometimes necessary to get a good ID. The type of wood being eaten is also sometimes relevant. Any idea what kind of wood it was?

Hypholoma laeteritum seems very reasonable to me. Central Europe here.
