my brother and I drove through the mountains of W. Va. on our way to Rock Hill, S. C. for my baby son's 50th birthday bash. The views were stunning. We did not have time to stop at the New River overlook but I had seen it in summer back when I could walk up all those steps with ease. Even in summer, that is breathtaking. I imagine the soil is perfect for blueberries since they love acid soil. I know when my kids were young we would go to an old strip mine area and pick enough wild huckleberries to last all winter for pies and pancakes.

I froze most of the huckleberries we picked. We did it the old fashioned way, by hand. appleannie1 Oct 2023 #30
