From what we have gathered, it must be a word meaning ‘fireweed’, our official territorial plant. We googled it, of course, and came up with the same interesting information as you.

The plants mentioned here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinnikinnick) are common and have a wide growth, some varieties which grow in the far north, and most have similar common names (squashberry, bearberry, nannyberry, and the like.)<br /><br />But, it's also a low growing plant.
