just curiosity
« on: June 13, 2011, 02:27:58 PM »
So i was wondering about what elevation do huckelberrys grow at and what are the ideal conditions to look for em. Are they in clear cuts? Are they in the timber or base of rock sloaps? Im thinking about going after bear really hard scarrice the season gets here but nvr really went after em, i plan on hunting the cowiche, rimrock, lil naches units since they are in my area of where i live and dont have the funds to be going over on the west side. Are there a lot of berry patches over here or are they scarrice? Thanks everyone!

Usually above 4K ft. They can be open fields, or lanes in the firs.

huckleberrys grow anywhere above 2000'.  They usually begin to get real good in late august through September and yes they need lots of sun and you usually finds lots near a water source.  At least thats where we find ours every year.

:yeah:

But I do know where some are below 2,000'.  They need sun, but you'll find them adjacent to cool running stream valleys. They need a bunch of water so look in areas that get good sun for half a day and cool off mid day that has a water source near. You'll often find Salmon berries closer or between them and the water source. 'Blackberries farther away from the water source'.  Often you'll find Hucks in open timber near a creek. Hucks do grow on the edges of clearcuts but not because it's a clearcut. Hucks where probably there before the cuttin happened. Hucks in the middle of a clearcut will usually die.

Yes'n no..  There are north-east slopes or open timbered valleys that get plenty of morning to late day sun then cool for late afternoon where they flurish a little later in the season. South slopes for earlier season fruit rendering.
