Rubus arcticus
Considered one of the tastiest berries you can find in Alaska. Very low growing. I have found them on mountains and in low bogs. They seem to like a lot of moisture (this mountain is always shrouded in fog, so the plants get very wet)

The flowers and berries are very similar to salmonberries, but they do not get as tall and the leaves on these are a bit rounder than salmonberries.
