Our annual fall visit to Black rock mountain

We had a beautiful day for our trip to Black Rock mtn state park. Very clear and just the right hiking temp, low 60's
Of course for some reason I just love to get mushroom shots. Not lots to choose from so far this year. Hard hike up to the top but at least since it was cooler I didn't feel like I had to drape myself over the marker at the top of the mountain this year. Boy am I glad we had our hiking sticks with us. Since it had rained a couple days before the trail was really slippery and muddy. Lots of moss covered rocks and roots to make the climb a wee bit slick. ;-)
This tree was just covered. I guess when there are this many mushrooms on a tree it is dying??? or at least not really healthy???
