Well a camping trip isn't complete for me until I've had a dinner from a Mountain House bag!it's just a must have! I'm bringing chips, salsa, and beans for the chile cheeseburgers Thursday! And my wife made a ton of banana bread. I hope to save some for you guys!
I'm having to adjust my arrival to Friday and likely dropping one attendee (just me)... so, I'm planning to bring a Saturday breakfast for the group (Mountain Man Breakfast) unless someone wants me to bring something else. I should be there in the early afternoon Friday 3pm or so...

Adjusted the count with the latest info, might be closer to 8-9 for Thursday dinner. Close enough though.Originally Posted by Redfish

FYI, one of my sons has a lot of food allergies. There is usually one ingredient in everything someone makes that he cannot have. A big one is sugar (cane, beet, or any derivative), since almost all processed food has a little. He also cannot have anything that could be contaminated with gluten. Throw in eggs, spinach, chard, quinoa and anything else in the amaranth family and it is on the no list.
For him not to feel left out, I will need to eat what he has for some of the meals. While I will love to taste a little bit of everything, I just want to make sure that no one is offended if I also have to pass.
Talked with the forest service. There will be a prescribed burn in the area on Thursday and there could potentially be some light smoke. It should all be cleared up by Friday morning.
Good News
NOAA Forecast has the wind blowing towards:
ENE on Thursday
N to NE on Friday
NE on Saturday
NE on Sunday
The campground is about 8 miles due west of the fire. This means the smoke is unlikely to be blowing towards the campground. My prediction is we won't even know the fire is there. Worst case scenario is a vague campfire smell (which we probably we won't even notice since we will have our own campfire).
I'm assuming we need to bring some wood for a camp fire?

Last year we had everyone bring 2 bundles.
That is good news
Also a reminder trash bags and water, slim pickings out there for firewood it's ok not to have a fire early to bed.
This site, which encompasses approximately 5 acres, is an old Forest Service work center. There are 5 buildings on the grounds which are not made available to the public. There are 3 pedestal grills, a group fire pit, 10 picnic tables. Neither water nor garbage service is provided. Your group must make the necessary arrangements for both. There are vault toilets.
