Part of my fungi series in Lancaster County Central Park. Do not eat the fungi. ... Earlier in my hike today, I saw some emerging thin Dead Man's Fingers. As I walked this trail, I saw some splendid examples of them. The cache is NOT at the fungus. The fungus is on a nearby tree on the other side of the trail. Don't destroy it. Edit: By early July, the fungi had faded.
Cache is a 1 cup size camo'ed plastic container nestled in a multi-trunked tree. Reach it from behind although you may see it from the front. It is just a few steps from the trail intersection. The few plants I needed to step by on approach were safe when I placed it June 4. There's some small shelf fungus on the tree. I also heard a Pileated Woodpecker family to the northeast of groundzero.
This page has more information about the fungus: Xylaria polymorpha
Congratulations to planet ploop on the First-To-Find.
