"backpacking" 3: a shortcut to mushrooms

On the first hike in to camp we ran into mushrooms. Now, not just any mushrooms, but the most colorful types that we had only seen in cartoons like the Smurfs. This first one just made us laugh because we had no idea they could actually look like this. Sarah challenged me to do a very informal photo shoot of different mushrooms just for kicks, she really likes her mushrooms. And for those that also love mushrooms (you reading this Erin?) Wisconsin has just another quirky thing to offer you that Cali doesn’t.

Extra points to anyone who got the Lord of the Rings reference in the title…
