  The only game in town…

  To understand this restaurant, one must understand that this is the only restaurant in a very large isolated park. The view is good. The food is very simple and plain, and costs more than you might expect. Many items are food that probably arrives at site frozen and prepared, and the kitchen does basic heating only.
  
  The hiker’s lunch is a sandwich wrap or PBJ sandwich, apple or orange, potato chips, and cookies. It is almost $10. The wraps were pretty good. The cookies were Oreos, and the potato chips were just dumped into a sandwich bag.
  
  Things to plan around:
  • They open for breakfast at 7:00. We wanted to get an early start to avoid the worst summer heat, but were limited by the restaurant opening time.
  • They close at 8:00. During the summer, this is before it gets dark, and before the much-celebrated sunset.
  
  If you are staying at the lodge, the only viable alternative is to bring your own food.
