Guess the top is broken down from the snow and wind to give it the flat look. Thanks for all the replies I tried feeding it moosetrot not hungry lol I know where I'll be looking this summer.

Probably one of the big, pasture-dwelling species of Bovista or Calvatia. My best guess is Calvatia lilacina - their stumps persist for many months and are often purplish.
