When to Pick
Huckleberries ripen in late August and September. Huckleberries require plenty of sunshine to ripen properly.
Where to Pick
Huckleberries grow in the Cascade mountain range (Mount Hood, Crater Lake, etc.) and in the Coast Range (200 coastal miles from the Columbia River to the Coquille River). Good picking spots vary from year to year, so you should call a ranger station in one of the national forests and ask for the best picking location.
Tips
Huckleberries generally grow on slopes in open areas where there is plenty of sunshine. In addition, Beargrass, Serviceberry, Hemlock, and Pacific Silver Fir are all plants that indicate that huckleberries are nearby.
