    Greetings everyone, a first time poster to this forum :).

    I know very little about mushrooms, and they don't grow very often in my yard in Chilliwack. However, this one popped up virtually over night.

    I have no intention on eating it, but I was just wondering if anyone knows what kind it is?

    It is a little hard to tell the scale of the mushroom, but in that picture it is about 10" in height.

    Thanks in advance :)

    I'm not very good in mushroom ID, but I think, it looks like a Macrolepiota rhacodes...
