Thanks AntónioGinjaGinja and CorduneanuVlad. You put me on the right track! Please note that scientific names only have the Genus capitalized and not the specific epithet. So it is incorrect to capitalize auranticum and versipelle here.
I agreed that is a Leccinum sp
Leccinum Aurantiacum or Versipelle
