I have found several different Lactarius, but the only one I can identify myself is L. paradoxus. I have more to post. Another that is almost solid white, too. I will check out subdulcis!

A nice Lactarius sp.
I don't know which one is it, but this is a Lactarius because of milky sap on the gills. Also the funnel shape of the cap is a tipical Lactarius shape.
It could be Lactarius Subdulcis - the Beech Milkcap.
