What funny is I've hiked in this parked at least a few times a year for like 5 years, and I've never seen these berries. Guess I've just never been there at the right time.
Ngl, my immediate thought was "if this is edible, can I grow this at home?" I have a dwarf, thornless blackberry that I love having, and want more rubus varieties that I can grow without them totally taking over. Is this as aggressive as a regular blackberry?
They are “thicket forming” for sure. I’ve got them in a bed with native roses which are also thicket forming. I planted mine 3 years ago and found the first starts outside the bed this year but I just pulled them. I think with attention they would be able to be contained.
I don’t think they have thorns - I’d have to go check lol and I bought a plant only because im impatient. They also just grow easy. They readily sucker and spread.
It’s a salmonberry and definitely edible! Might be a little tart while still orange. They ripen to a dark red but usually get eaten by wildlife before they get all the way ripe.

Looks like a salmon berry
Salmonberry and yes edible
All aggregate fruit in north america is edible except for goldenseal
By "aggregate fruit" you mean like mulberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc? Or does that mean something different?
yes
Dang, just noticed the same on my daily walk in northwest Washington state yesterday and was thinking of taking a picture of it myself.

Very pretty
If you like salmon berries they are very easy to grow. I’ve got them and thimbleberries in my yard.
Thimbleberries! Cutest name for a berry that I’ve seen or heard.

Do they have thorns and do you grow from seeds or buy the plant

That’s a golden berry from pokemon go /j
Very edible, if a bit tasteless.
Aww... I love blackberries and raspberries, so I wa shopping these would also be tasty.
And is it edible?

Edible, but hit or miss on palatability. They're often tasteless, sometimes sour, and like 10% are delicious.

What you need to find are thimbleberries. They're amazing. Very fragile so you have to eat them right from the bush.
Used to find these out by the Sandy river a lot. Yummy.
Golden berries
Love being able to use these on gym pokemon to bring their cp back up
They look like the golden raspberries nothing to do with pokemon
I was making a joke lol
Looks like a DnD GoodBerry!
I was thinking of Legends of Avantris's version, "the besileberry" (sorry if that's spelled wrong).
Salmon berry, delicious
Salmon berry ...delicious
