Can I come by and pick some up! That looks amazing.
I can't believe you drove 5 1/2 hours, that's some dedication! I love huckleberries too, but I usually just find them as a special treat when I'm hiking backcountry, I never bring them home and turn them into other goodness.
After this post though I might have to give it a try next time. Problem is it'd never come out looking like that :P
Thanks for sharing :)
