I found plenty of mountain blueberries ripe around 3,000 on the 17th on the east side of the olympics. Blue huckleberries were still green and small around 4,000 feet and barely visible with some still having flower buds at 4500. I think opening weekend will be good in the 3-4,000ft range around here. Most my spots in the cascades probably won't be good till the end of August or so it looks like

This was from today/Aug 3 at 3000' on the north side.
Lots of the bushes covered in them.

South end is full swing from 2600-3600ft. I've been out twice and haven't seen a bear where I was. But Monday and today someone beat me to my spot and put a stalk on a bear in two different locations with no shots fired.

Olympics have been tough for me I haven't found a good spot yet, but I'm still looking. I'm sure I'll find one. Most the good spots are in the park, we really don't get a lot of good alpine area on the east side of the park boundary. You can't go off trail nearly as easily as you could in the eastside alpine areas so it makes it tougher
Same here, been all over anything accessible from the 23 and much of the area from hoodsport north to the 25, but never really found a specific spot to stick to. Sure looks like much of the higher elevation areas outside of the wilderness sections were really good 10-15 years ago though. In the spring I see quite a bit of sign on the abandoned roads below wonder mountain, but that section doesn't provide much for berry growth during the season.
