I found my thrill...

Endless opportunities

Endless opportunities for blueberry picking. Blueberry hills forever 😉 thats my last bad pop music reference in this post, I promise.

Pano

With a beautiful view!

Blueberry hill

Blueberry hill is a wild blueberry management area in the Moosalamoo National Recreation Area near Goshen, Vermont.

Berry bushes

The berry bushes are all around.

the View

There are blueberries but also wild blackberries and wild raspberries.

Blueberries

The quantities of blueberries is overwhelming.

Sooo many

However for the uninitiated... wild blueberries are smaller and grow close to the ground. Lots of work 😅

Blueberries

We went two days and got over 6 pounds for the tiny berries 🙂 Spent about an hour each day to break it up.

Steeplebush

There are also random flowers 😊

This way

If you go, its well marked. Wild blueberries like some shade so look under the taller bushes for the biggest blueberries and most productive plants.

Through the looking glass

The path in is deceptive. There are hundreds of hiking trails heading off through the undergrowth in Vermont.

To the top of the hill

But it opens up. I think the "management" consists of keeping the larger trees for taking over the open fields.

For those of you that aren't 50's Rock and Roll fans or never watched Happy Days ...
