There is another great grove right nearby this hike on the 7 Hills Trail on Diamond Mountain right above the scramble. I enjoyed your article about huckleberries. Most people don't know the difference between huckleberries and blueberries, but they both grow in the park and are both very tasty. The blueberry/huckleberry season just started and will (beginning of June) and will last for the next several weeks through August, so enjoy them now while they are there! And yes, this year's excessive rains have produced a bumper crop!Heshyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09547540174878809991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089832905714862065.post-89218009405962222322013-07-12T08:16:01.141-04:002013-07-12T08:16:01.141-04:00Thanks for sharing!

But mine is near Lake Welch, at the end near the road to St. John's in the Woods. I know it's been a year since this post but, boy! The blueberries and the huckleberries are having a "mast" year! They are everywhere. I think there's been plenty of rain.<br /><br />I found an old article in the New York Times about the best places to find huckleberries. I'm thinking of trying a few of these places in the next week or two, starting with High Point, in the Catskills (I think Sam's Point was also historically good berry picking).<br /><br />I posted about huckleberries on my own site (http://www.myharriman.com/wild-new-york-huckleberries/) but this is yet another location to try! Filling a large gatorade bottle in ten minutes is a pretty good rate. :0)<br /><br />Suzy A.http://www.myharriman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089832905714862065.post-60169819167171234892013-04-07T00:58:47.702-04:002013-04-07T00:58:47.702-04:00Thank you so very much for your post about the blu...Thank you so very much for your post about the blueberries :) I am super excited to visit this year to find some.
