I found this plant blooming along the Savage River trail in Denali National Park in early July.
This little Harebell was blooming in a crack in a rock at 3400' on Mt. Healy in Denali National Park. The flower is quite large in comparison to the whole plant. I'm often amazed at the tenacity of plants to live in such seemingly impossible situations!
This was the only ripe blueberry we saw on our 2-week visit. Berries of all kinds are very prevalent in Alaska. Berry picking is a popular activity in the late summer and fall. We enjoyed eating preserves at the Big Bear Bed and Breakfast where we stayed in Anchorage. Our hostess served us the "fruits of her labor" with her delicious breakfasts!
