McCLURE Heritage Program, Gifford Pirwhot National Forest, 2455 HighlL¥1lf 141, Dou! Lake, WA 98650 ABSTRACT,~Among Ihe native peoples of south-central Washington, berries of the genus Vaccil1ium hold a signHicant place among traditional foods. In the past, berries were collected in quantity at higher elevations in the central Cascade Mmmtains and processed for storage. Berries were dried along a shallow trench using indirect heat from d smoldering log. To date, archaeological investigations in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest have resulted in lhe identil1cation of 274 Vatcin;um drying features at 38 sites along the crest of the Cascades. Analyses have included archaeobotanical sampling,. radiocarbon dating. and identification of related features, incorporating ethnohistonc and ethnographic studies, Archae­ ological excavations have been conducted at one of the sites. Recent invesHgations indicate a correlation behveen high feature densities and specific plant commu­ nities in the mountain heml()(~k zone. The majority of the sites date from the historic period, but evidence 01 prehistoflc use is also indicated, Key words: berries, Vaccinium~ Cascade rv1ountains, ethnornstory, ardtaeubotanical record.

Three ways to contact us: FAX: (303) 621-2864 (24 HRS.) email: [email protected] website: www.alplains.com Dear Growing Friends: Welcome to our 23rd annual seed catalog! The summer of 2012 was long, hot and brutal, with drought afflicting most of the U.S. Most of my botanical explorations were restricted to Idaho, Wash- ington, Oregon and northern California but even there moisture was below average. In a year like this, seeps, swales, springs, vestigial snowbanks and localized rainstorms became much more important in my search for seeding plants. On the Snake River Plains of southern Idaho and the scab- lands of eastern Washington, early bloomers such as Viola beckwithii, V. trinervata, Ranunculus glaberrimus, Ranunculus andersonii, Fritillaria pudica and Primula cusickiana put on quite a show in mid-April but many populations could not set seed. In northern Idaho, Erythronium idahoense flowered extensively, whole meadows were covered with thousands of the creamy, pendant blossoms. One of my most satisfying finds in the Hells Canyon area had to be Sedum valens. The tiny glaucous rosettes, surround- ed by a ring of red leaves, are a succulent connoisseur’s dream. Higher up, the brilliant blue spikes of Synthyris missurica punctuated the canyon walls. In southern Oregon, the brilliant red spikes of Pedicularis densiflora lit up the Siskiyou forest floor. Further north in Oregon, large populations of Erythronium elegans, Erythronium oregonum ssp. leucandrum, Erythro- nium revolutum, trilliums and sedums provided wonderful picture-taking opportunities. Eriogonum species did well despite the drought, many of them true xerics.
