Rubus chamaemorus
AKA Bakeapple or Cloudberry.
The Bakeapples are gradually ripening on the bogs surrounding the community. In another few days it'll become a soft gold delicacy for the locals. According to info from Wikipedia, the Bakeapple can be found only in the Northern Hemisphere from 78°N, south to about 55°N, and very scattered south to 44°N mainly in mountainous areas. It even shows up in a few of the lower 48 states of the USA.
We made a short hike to the Lighthouse area in the community today to check them out and shot a few pics while there.
"south to about 55°N"?
