Description
Mushrooms growing out of the side of a fallen tree over Hedge Creek just below the Falls. Hedge Creek Falls is in Northern California in Dunsmuir.
There was a tree that had fallen over the river and little mushroom colonies were all over the side. It seemed that every crack had some popping out.
