Baker City Bronc and Bull Riding
Got to spend a little time behind the chutes getting ready for an action packed weekend at this year's Baker City Bronc and Bull Riding, with some of the meanest Broncs, toughest cowboys, and hardest working pick up men we've seen in a long time at Friday night's Bronc riding.
This two day rodeo event in Baker City is held on the 3rd weekend of July each year in conjunction with the annual Miners Jubilee celebration and features some of the best rodeo stock and toughest cowboy’s of any rodeo in Oregon, competing in just two events, bronc riding on Friday and bull riding on Saturday.

Llyn (Lake) Cwmorthin in the Moelwyn Mountains above the village of Tanygrisiau, in Gwynedd, North Wales.
The lake was used by Cwmorthin Slate Mine to feed a water wheel, which powered the dressing machinery needed for the mining work.
The quaries in this area were run by several different companies as a venture in its own right during the late 1800's. The earlier underground workings started at "Lake Level" by the Cwmorthin Slate Company Ltd, ascended upwards in the mountain ultimately for 8 floors in both the Old and Back Vein. Poor working practices and reckless engineering decisions ultimately led to a substantial collapse in 1884 and the end of that company, which failed to recover, in 1888.
A new company (The New Welsh Slate Company Ltd, freshly evicted from Oakeley) took the mine on afterwards and reused Lake Level but sealed off the shattered and dangerous upper floors. Instead, they developed new workings below, going down into the mountain. Ultimately this company sunk five floors on both veins, before itself closing in 1900 due to financial difficulties, despite phenomenal extraction for just a 12 year stay and only ever using traditional hand-drilling methods. The mine came up for sale and the neighbouring Oakeley Quarry bought the rights to it, though they didn't attempt to work the lower floors initially and let it fill with water (some work was done on A and B in the Old Vein, and a new attempt was made to open up the "North Vein", previously unworked at Cwmorthin).
The lower floors flooded up to Lake Level in the Back Vein and up to C floor in the Old Vein, obviously containing an immense amount of water hundreds of feet deep, which remained until the early 1930's. Oakeley were at this time driving underneath the old Cwmorthin workings and were uneasy about having such a huge volume of water above them, so decided to drain it out. Special diamond-drilled bore holes were driven through into the deepest parts of Cwmorthin from Oakeley and the water was drained out under controlled conditions.
After the water was cleared, the mines were connected in several places and Oakeley actually re-opened some of Cwmorthin's Back Vein workings and put men to work in them on floor E. The Back Vein Incline was re-equipped and even a whole new incline was driven down another 90 vertical feet to open some more chambers on a whole new floor - Level G. The Old Vein and North Vein were abandoned.
Cwmorthin operated essentially as just another district of Oakeley right up until 1970 when Oakeley itself closed, unable to pay to keep the massive pumps running that kept the whole sprawling labyrinth dry. This marked the end of the mine's working life as a major concern, and ownership of Oakeley and Cwmorthin was once again split. Throughout the 1980's and early 1990's Cwmorthin was working on a limited scale by a small team of local men. Extraction occurred in a few chambers on Lake Level and Level 2. This endeavour too came to an end, with some unsuccessful attempts to untop the ancient Cwmorthin Slate Company workings around the year 2000 by Mcalpines PLC.

Dat.: Dec. 09. 2014
Lat.: 46.35624 Long.: 13.69918
Code: Bot_854/2014_DSC5207
Habitat: alpine valley, river bank, locally almost flat terrain, calcareous ground, river bank vegetation mostly consisting of Salix eleagnos, Picea abies and some Fagus sylvatica; humid air and ground, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, a average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 525 m (1.720 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: dead wood, stump of a cut down Salix eleagnos.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, left bank of river Soča, slightly downstream from farmhouse Matevž, Trenta 3, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comments: Growing in a group of five pilei; pilei small or still young; pilei across 0.9 - 2 cm, maximally 7 mm thick; pilei with gelatinous cutis easily peeling off, very sticky; stipe absent, some white mycelium present at the point of attachment; taste mild, indistinctive, smell none; flesh soft, pliant, watery; SP abundant, neutral brown, oac783.
I follow taxonomy given in Krieglsteiner (2001) who distinguishes two varieties of Crepidotus mollis, var. mollis and var. calolepsis. The latter on has scales on its pileus (which was not the case in my find) and is considered by some authors as a separate species.

Bjerkandera adusta (Willd.:Fr.) Karst., syn.: Boletus crispus Pers.
Smoky Bracket, DE: Angebrannter Rauchporling

Dat.: Dec. 09. 2014
Lat.: 46.35624 Long.: 13.69918
Code: Bot_854/2014_DSC5245
Habitat: alpine valley, river bank, locally almost flat terrain, calcareous ground, river bank vegetation mostly consisting of Salix eleagnos, Picea abies and some Fagus sylvatica; humid air and ground, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 525 m (1.720 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: dead wood, a stump of cut down Salix eleagnos in its late initial phase of disintegration.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, left bank of river Soča between villages Soča and Trenta, 50 m downstream of the bridge to the farmhouse 'Matevž', Trenta 3, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comments: There exist two species of the genus Bjerkandera growing in Europe and also in Slovenia: Bjerkandera adusta and Bjerkandera fumosa. Both have very variable and irregular habitus and can be found pileate, effuse reflexed and also totally resupinate. Bjerkandera adusta is more common and can be distinguished from Bjerkandera fumosa by its very, very small more or less angular pores (5-7/mm), darker gray pore surface with pale margin and smaller spores. But distinguishing is not always easy. Bjerkandera adusta can be found during the whole year but it sporulates only at temperatures below 10 deg C (Ref.:4). So, one can hope to get spore print only during colder seasons of my country. Generally in the literature the pilei are described as azonate or only weakly zonate, however when they are very young this apparently doesn't hold (see Fig.4).
Growing in imbricate groups of several fruit bodies; pilei 1.2 - 2.8 cm across, trama pale brown, corky-fibrous (cannot be chewed over but can be nicely cut with a razor), up to 4.5 mm thick, pore layer dark-grey and distinctly darker then trama, about 1 mm thick; stipe absent; taste mild, slightly unpleasant but not bitter; smell on sour earth similar to Trametes versicolor; SP faint, whitish.
Spores smooth. Dimensions: 4.1 [4.5 ; 4.7] 5.1 x 2.6 [2.9 ; 3] 3.4 microns; Q = 1.3 [1.5 ; 1.6] 1.8; N = 37; C = 95%; Me = 4.6 x 3 microns; Qe = 1.6. Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil; in water, live material. AmScope MA500 digital camera.

Habitat: alpine valley, river bank, locally almost flat terrain, calcareous ground, river bank vegetation mostly consisting of Salix eleagnos, Picea abies and some Fagus sylvatica; humid air and ground, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, a average temperature 8-10 deg C, elevation 525 m (1.720 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: dead wood, stump of a cut down Salix eleagnos.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, left bank of river Soča, slightly downstream from farmhouse Matevž, Trenta 3, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comments: Growing in a group of five pilei; pilei small or still young; pilei across 0.9 - 2 cm, maximally 7 mm thick; pilei with gelatinous cutis easily peeling off, very sticky; stipe absent, some white mycelium present at the point of attachment; taste mild, indistinctive, smell none; flesh soft, pliant, watery; SP abundant, neutral brown, oac783.
I follow taxonomy given in Krieglsteiner (2001) who distinguishes two varieties of Crepidotus mollis, var. mollis and var. calolepsis. The latter on has scales on its pileus (which was not the case in my find) and is considered by some authors as a separate species.

Habitat: alpine valley, river bank, locally almost flat terrain, calcareous ground, river bank vegetation mostly consisting of Salix eleagnos, Picea abies and some Fagus sylvatica; humid air and ground, partly sunny, exposed to direct rain; average precipitations ~ 3.000 mm/year, average temperature 7-9 deg C, elevation 525 m (1.720 feet), alpine phytogeographical region.
Substratum: dead wood, a stump of cut down Salix eleagnos in its late initial phase of disintegration.
Place: Lower Trenta valley, left bank of river Soča between villages Soča and Trenta, 50 m downstream of the bridge to the farmhouse 'Matevž', Trenta 3, East Julian Alps, Posočje, Slovenia EC.
Comments: There exist two species of the genus Bjerkandera growing in Europe and also in Slovenia: Bjerkandera adusta and Bjerkandera fumosa. Both have very variable and irregular habitus and can be found pileate, effuse reflexed and also totally resupinate. Bjerkandera adusta is more common and can be distinguished from Bjerkandera fumosa by its very, very small more or less angular pores (5-7/mm), darker gray pore surface with pale margin and smaller spores. But distinguishing is not always easy. Bjerkandera adusta can be found during the whole year but it sporulates only at temperatures below 10 deg C (Ref.:4). So, one can hope to get spore print only during colder seasons of my country. Generally in the literature the pilei are described as azonate or only weakly zonate, however when they are very young this apparently doesn't hold (see Fig.4).
Growing in imbricate groups of several fruit bodies; pilei 1.2 - 2.8 cm across, trama pale brown, corky-fibrous (cannot be chewed over but can be nicely cut with a razor), up to 4.5 mm thick, pore layer dark-grey and distinctly darker then trama, about 1 mm thick; stipe absent; taste mild, slightly unpleasant but not bitter; smell on sour earth similar to Trametes versicolor; SP faint, whitish.
Spores smooth. Dimensions: 4.1 [4.5 ; 4.7] 5.1 x 2.6 [2.9 ; 3] 3.4 microns; Q = 1.3 [1.5 ; 1.6] 1.8; N = 37; C = 95%; Me = 4.6 x 3 microns; Qe = 1.6. Olympus CH20, NEA 100x/1.25, magnification 1.000 x, oil; in water, live material. AmScope MA500 digital camera.
