pic 01 -- Red Huckleberries (early in the camping season and high on the bush. later and lower they're gone... just ... gone.) Tart and beautiful, translucent, luminous coral colored fruit, they are delicious.

pic 02 -- Blue Huckleberries (far rarer, just as delicious but not as sublimely beautiful). There is a pair of red huckleberries in the background.
