Lots of fungi in the redwood forest as well. Some of them edible. Unfortunately, my sister-in-law had recently had an allergic reaction that may have come from mushrooms. She'd been advised to stick with a totally allergen-free diet (is that even possible?) for a few weeks until all symptoms had cleared, then try one suspect item at a time. She was not ready to try mushrooms again yet, so even the most delicious and safe varieties we saw, we just had to photograph rather than take home to eat.
