Matt found this lone Indigo Milk Cap (Lactarius indigo) along a trail on our cabin property this weekend.
I went back today to get a few more photos of this distinctive mushroom and discovered several more blue mushrooms a short distance up the same trail.
While the outside of the Indigo Milk Cap may be a pale blue, the inside is a deep blue and will ooze a blue "milk", or latex. These mushrooms have a firm/meaty flesh and are delicious when sliced and cooked in butter.
