Huckleberry Picking-

This is from way back this summer when we went up Strawberry Canyon and picked huckleberries. It was so pretty & a lot of fun but definitely not quick work.
Picking berries from the little bushes all over.

It was fun to play & be up in the mountains.

Madalyn "helping" That's my bucket that I put all the huckleberries I'd picked (about 1 1/2 cups) after a good hour.

After we had a campfire & dinner just down from where we picked-
Owen still having a blast.

It was a lot of fun and we are looking forward to doing it again next year.

A few of the huckleberries went in a smoothie the next morning and the rest went into some raspberry freezer jam- it is sooo pretty & tasty too.
