Unless I am blind...There are absolutely no berries on the east side.

are you seeing currant or elder berries?  the elder berries are gonna be good when they finally come on what about oregon grape, salal, cascara, hawthorne, blackberries, red huckleberries, wild cherries, etc...?  you arent seeing any berries  most I am seeing are a little late but look like they will produce well.....again I have been down in the klickitat canyon areas and mount adams so south end of the cascades

huge service berry and chokecherry crop.  Mountain hucks are late, very late but present.  Elderberry looks fine.

I've only been out twice, yesterday up where you have been. The berries are coming on. In my usual spots it's just a little late. I haven't seen one yet either, and not alot of sign yet

Seen lots of berries this weekend but none were ripe.

Just got home from Skykomish area.  Lots of running blackberries (wild blackberries), salmon berries and service berries down low.  I didn't see any bears, but did eat a lot of blackberries  .  All the huckleberries are small and green yet. 

Now I just need to perfect my calling techniques and maybe I will harvest my first black bear ever.....

Bears in the area(s) I hunt are eating, amongst other things, the inner cambium layer of doug fir, lodgepole pine and sub-alpine silver fir for nutrition. Berries in the alpine areas are as previously described; small BB sized and green. Some berry bushes above 4,800 feet elevation have just sprung up from the snow that had them packed down.

Hberries won't grow much below 3,000 feet elevation.  You may be up too high if they are still green.
Here in Blues they are just getting ripe at the lowest elevations.  Up high they are still green bbs.  Everything is about 2-3 weeks behind.  The boys and I were picking yesterday where we usually find them in July.

I know where the berries are!

[boneaddict]

I believe these are at 4500.....We picked 3 gallons today.

I was just hunting that same area! Get out out of my stomping grounds. JK But seriosly. I traveled about 150 to 200 miles in a truck on the back roads there and only spotted two bears. One a nice big chocolate that I busted and a smaller bear. Both I seen from my truck. I hiked about 5 miles and didnt see a thing. Also nice bucks, but back to the berries. There was only one place where I found quite a bit of blueberries. All of the other areas had green blueberries and/or huckleberries (whatever you would like to call them, they are both blue and tasty to me) just like you said. I was about at 3500 to 4000 feet when I found the ripe berries. That is also were I seen the 2 bears . I also seen a pile of scat that was beat red with berry seeds in it. If you can't tell I am not an expert on berries good luck
