2008 was perhaps the best huckleberry crop year since 1994. And 2009 turned out to be even better. (By contrast, 2010 was one of the WORST seasons I've ever seen.) 2011 and 2012 were decent, but not quite up to what we expected.We experienced a highly variable crop in 2013. Some areas got lots of snow, some were highly deficient. We had a fairly cool and wet spring, and then some unseasonably warm weather in early May. The last frost we got here, was the night of April 30/May1, which is good for the berry crop (we usually get a frost a week or 10 days later, which tends to nip the buds on the current years growth. Soooo, the crop was very good in LOCALIZED areas, and very bad in other areas, and everything in between. We suggest scouting long and hard for good patches, before they are ripe.
