Has anyone out there seen any spring mushrooms yet?

I found some Big golden brown and brown mushrooms near the Gallatin River today and were wondering what they were. They had lots of gills and I brought one home in case they were good to eat. Could u help me find what they are?
Hello,
Glad to hear the fungi have decided to grow!
Send some pictures to my email and I will look at them. MontanaMushrooms@gmail.com
Top view, bottom view showing gills, and a side shot. Then, take a spore print(cut off the stem and lay gills side down on paper and cover) and note the color after a few hours. Hopefully you dug up the base, because that is important for ID. I will help you try to identify it.
An note for everyone…never eat a mushroom you are not absolutely sure of. Bring a sample home and try to identify it like Peyton has done.
Talk to you soon,
Dean
