Fireweed plants. Use stems, leaves, flowers and seed pods in a fresh salad. Especially common after forest fire. It is my favourite salad and rivals anything served in a restaurant.
Blueberries. Most common by the second year after a forest fire. I ate one cup of berries per meal for at least 40 dinners in August and September, and could have picked an unlimited number. I moved through areas with many blueberries and because of this had numerous bear sightings and several problems with bears. Bears tend to move into berry-rich areas.
