Arctic Valley 7/27/12

Crowberries still greenish, but doing well. The Blueberries aren't flowering yet, and a park ranger confirmed that this year will be better than last as far as blueberries, but the moths will still be here.

Beach Lake area

Rose hips are almost ready, only a few more days. There aren't many blueberries in the area; it's mostly forested.

Hatcher Pass (Thanks to JT)

"Nary a blueberry to be seen! We may not have gone far enough above the tree line. The cranberries are also mostly green still."

Arctic Valley

7/17/12 Went there today. Found MANY ripening crowberries. The blueberries bushes show no sign of flower buds, and the leaves seem to have been eaten by insects. :( Hopefully it will be an improvement from last year. Camera battery died, so mo pictures.

Welcome!

Please post here about how blueberries and other berries are ripening in the state.
