Weird white king oyster looking thing...

I have no idea what this is... looks like a white capped king oyster but I know they don't grow here... thinking it is some type of oyster?

It's flesh is very dense/tough, but still pliable. I tried to get a spore print, left it for two days and nothing...

Found growing on the ground, but there was also landscaping wood chips about as well. It was collected in Priddis, ab in a manicured patch of 'forest' between two fancy-schmancy estates. (Foothills of the rockymountains: pine, spruce, aspen, poplar)

What do you guys think?

If you look in this picture, one of the mushrooms has actually exploded somehow...
