I took a drive to the Blue Mountains Sunday to check on the status of one of my huckleberry patches. The quick report there is the berries are still small and green and likely several weeks away from being pickable. There were decent numbers of berries on some plants but not tons. Since it was too early to pick, I drove around and went for a short hike up to Diamond Peak on the edge of the Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness Area. The hike yielded some good views of the Wallowa and Seven Devils mountain ranges and plenty of wildflowers/Eric Barker, Lewiston Tribune. More here.

Question: Anyone have a report on the State of the Huckleberries in North Idaho this summer?
