Noticed these berries at Atsion Lake. Was wondering if anybody knew what they were.

My guess is Blackhaw. The berries of bayberry aren't in terminal clusters, but rather grow along the stems, closer than the leaves. They are also grayish-white rather than pink. Bayberry isn't likely to be found in that wet of a site either.

I have word from a botanist that this is wild raisin or withe-rod, Viburnum nudum, likely var. nudum (based on plant's height), but possibly V. nudum var. cassinoides (usually taller but would need to see leaf margins and seeds to be sure).
