for two hours, that is.
I went to the west end of Odell Lake and parked in the Trapper Creek Boat Launch area and meandered about picking Huckleberries (wild blueberries)this morning.
Odell is an hours drive to the southwest of Sunriver.
It appears that due to the deep snowpack last winter and late summer that the berries are two - three weeks behind the normal schedule. From what I saw, in another one - two weeks it will be berry nirvana.

I can rarely get that many in the bowl. If I were too have picked that many I surely would have ate about three times that.;-)
Nice Work.
That's really cool. I have a 7 blueberry plants in my back yard, but they produce around March and April in Florida. That's my favorite time of year for home gardening in Florida ... nice strawberries and blueberries ... yum.
Pancakes or cobbler?
🙂
That is awesome! Better enjoy them too. Cause you won't enjoy alot else. Between the IRS, State Taxes, blowed tires, and telephone bills, and electirc bills, and all those other bills, berries are one of the few luxeries that they cannot tax, before you eat them!

Tim, they will most likely end up in pancakes, although there are plenty for a coffeecake/sheet cake that my wife makes - yum!
Two things that will stop a crew's production in the field....
Junk piles and berry patches!
The blackberries are just starting to turn here, there's going to be a bumper crop too....yummmmmm
Thanks to CD Hillman, there there is an abundance. Clarence would plant blackberries on the lots he owned, knowing that they grew fast and would cover all the big stumps. He could then take pictures and send them back east and it would look like a nice even grade on the land.
There was also the Pig War. The guy who shot the pig didn't like his neighbor's pigs coming into his yard so he a blackberry hedge, trying to keep them out. The pigs ate the vines so he shot one....

Blue Berry Pie and a dollop of thickened cream please...
