The High Mountain Variety

Last month my neighbors invited me on a hike to Coldwater Peak up near Mt. St. Helens. It was a steep climb, 12 miles round trip, but definitely worth the effort. Besides the amazing views and scenery, I was introduced to the art of gathering Huckleberries. I have never really eaten Huckleberries before and found them to be very tasty, especially the "high mountain variety" as my friend Chris likes to call them.
Enjoy the pics-my camera was lost at the time of this hike, so the credit goes to Chris for the great shots. Flickr
