Just watch out for the mosquitoes, ticks, flies, leeches, thorns, and poison ivy!

Yeah the number of blackberries was stunning. I had to leave before they fully ripened but in a few days I think there will be enough for multiple pies. There were thousands of berries.

That is incredible. I don't think I've ever come across such an abundance like that.

I'm getting pretty good thimbleberries and blueberries right now though, which I'm really happy about ๐Ÿ˜

Nice! I love thimbleberries. Always wanted to bake with them since I love their flavorโ€”my wife calls them electric raspberries. But Iโ€™ve never been able to find more than a nibble.

They're so good! I've heard they can be found in Minnesota, among other places.

It's kind of been a tough season for them I think. They were popping really well, and then we had a pretty good dry spell for a while so they got kind of shrivel-y.

I think it's interesting when you catch them just before they go bad and they have a fermented flavor to them.
