BBQ on Rattlesnake Ledge: 9/18/08
Another TNAB season, another reason to celebrate! We gathered once again at Rattlesnake Ledge for the annual cookout (closest Thursday to the Autumnal Equinox). The views were...ok, there were no views, but the food and the company was outstanding.
Attendees: The Magellan Family, The EWB Family, The M. Constants (Don and Lynda), The Lykkens, Schmidt Altitude, Larry, Magnum (Chris), Runningbird (Peggy) , QG (Joseph), BarbE, Yukon222 (Steve), Yet and Yet's Truly
As usual, we had more stuff than we could all eat (or drink). New innovation (to me at least) was to top a veggie burger with BarbE's yummy potato salad - great idea!
The party lasted for over 90 minutes, as everyone got their fill of fun. Then darkness settled in, signaling it was time to clean up and depart. The last of us left the Ledge shortly after 8 PM. No need to go to the Pourhouse this night!
Now let's see those pics, party people!

Yes, a very good time! I also must recommend the potato salad/hot dog on a hamburger bun combo that was just perfect. However, people didn't drink enough of the blue 151 koolaid I brought since I had to haul over half of it back down .
Starting up the road Magellan and his first mate Views of the ridge We're above most of the clouds Mark mans the grill Saluting the late arrivals Who wants another hot dog! Thanks for carrying little Lucy 2 labels The Lykkens and Yukon get their drink on Plenty of food for everyone Larry, runningbird, and GQ-Joe-Hiker in a deep discussion Partying well into the night The witch's brew! A picture for the magazine ads Down the hatch Creatures of the night Mark and Magnum seem to be carrying most of the gear J-Lyk and Babe on the trail out

Well, there aren't any signs that say you CAN'T fire up a barbecue grill on Rattlesnake Ledge, so I guess it must be okay.

Heated by small propane canister, not lighter fluid/briquettes.

Wouldn't a jet boil or pocket rocket have been lighter and easier to carry?

Oh, I'm sure they're pretty lenient about firing up propane canisters within the Cedar River Watershed.

I think we have a closet park ranger in our midst! (Not that there is anything wrong with that...)
Looks like a good time gang - sorry I had to miss. One more, right?
