English ivy covered much of the ground. Fungus (sclerotium) was about the size of a football, weighed 11 lb., and seemed to be made up of compressed soil with hardened soil on the outside. Discovered when making a trail down a hillside on property to some old springs that once were the source of drinking water for the city of Vancouver in the 1800s.
