At one of the local roadside bear hunting spots all the blueberries were ripe the other day.

Went to my secret bear spot last night...hucks were ripe...most of the black berries had another week or two before they really came in (fairly low elevation), with the exception of the bushes that were really in the sun.

Had a yote or a bobcat come out of a swamp at dusk (40 yards or so)...I am guessing a yote but the back end stayed in the brush, so I couldnt make out the tail... it was dark and hard to tell, went to lift the binos on em, he disappeared.

I can't speak for Chinook but I have seen ripe blueberries on the crest trail in the past 3 days.

I was up high today and the blue berries are still green.6000ft..No bear sign up high but some very very fresh stuff at about 3000ft.   Couple more weeks til they get ripe up there!!!!

Was in the Glacier Peak Wilderness last weekend 8/7-8/9 and most everything above about 4500 were still pretty green. Down below 4000, berries were plentiful. Was in the Chiwawa River area.

I just got back! Hucks, blue and red, Blues and Salmon berris ripe at 5000+.  I happened in to Salmon berries surrounded by nettles on a southwest slope where I really didn't expect to see any.
