The gallery below is a slideshow of mushrooms. It is little more than eye candy. No attempt is made to provide names or much information for the mushrooms. We take notice of mushroom and find them interesting but do not know much about them.

RMNP, On the Ypsilon Lake Trail RMNP we saw this reddish brown mushroom growing on a  log RMNP, Two plain brown mushrooms growing close to the forest floor. RMNP, Three yellow mushrooms in the sun. RMNP, A mushroom, red with white spots,  that we saw on the way to Spruce Lake. RMNP, Another mushroom we saw on the way to Spruce Lake is this white one, with a bite taken out of it. RMNP, wo yellow-white-red mushrooms poking through the dirt near lily Lake. RMNP, On a stroll around Lily Lake we saw these three large mushrooms hiding behind the grass. RMNP, Three shiny brown mushrooms growing in a wet area along the side of the Lookout Mountain Trail.

Below is a collection of photographs of some interesting and odd things we have seen in Rocky Mountain National Park.

RMNP, this is a weird looking thing. No idea what it is. May not even be a fungus. RMNP, This yellow thing is probably a fungus, but we aren't sure. RMNP, We have no idea what this brown thing is. Mushroom? RMNP, lichen growing on a rock near Lily Lake
