I am taking a run over to Andover ME on Sunday to check out the blueberry crop on Andover White Cap. The normal indicators of ripe berries are out (I.E. blueberry pickers out along Rt 2 on Gorham Hill). Leaving Gorham NH Common at 8 AM if anyone is interested. Best blueberries I have found in the region with three distinct varieties (Alpine, blue and black) and at least one subvariety (silver). 360 degree views but not a lot of exercise (1 to 1.5 hours up). Plan to pick for 2 hours at the top and possibly a Sunday River Brewing stop on the return. The ATV routes have been closed and the trails reworked so the experience is better than a few years back.

It is earlier than normal but the dry spell and warm spring both should have sped them up.
