Foraging Mushrooms in an Old Growth Forest

In this video I head out into one of the rare old growth stands of douglas Fir here in the PNW to see what kind of mushrooms are growing in early fall. This is a preserved old growth forest and has a unique mycoflora that is different from what I find in the common 2nd growth coniferous forests I usually look for mushrooms in. This video is purely for entertainment and not meant to be a substitute for real mushroom identification with a trusted field guide. Please do not try to compare mushroom's you find in the forest against this shakey cell phone footage. I don't elaborate on edibility too much, or about special features or medicinal uses for these mushrooms, just a fun walk in the woods.
