[pct-l] Paradise Corner Cafe Open?

[Joe McDougall]

Rain slowed my pace on Saturday to only 2.2 mph.  I hiked 26 miles from Barrel Springs to Chihuahua Valley Rd in intermittent rain on Saturday.  Even had a 3 hour stretch fog-hiking after dark.  However, we bailed on Sunday's 25 mile plan due to increased foul weather.  Long story short, I didn't make it to Paradise - although, they were open from 8-7 on Sat and 8-3 on Sun.

By the way,  I pulled 3 dead mice out of the Barrel Spring source (at the top of the hill) this morning (2/21/10).  However, due to the thick roots that are growing in the source, I couldn't get the large earthworm-looking things that were feeding on the little carcasses. (I posted this tidbit earlier this morning but haven't seen the post yet)

Still longing4trails (and long ones at that) - Joe

They were open last Saturday.  I'd be interested in your opinion if you get the opportunity to eat there.  I think the burgers being served nowadays are not measuring up to their burgers of several years ago.  I stopped for lunch twice in the last three months, and I don't think I'll take the time to do so again.

Maybe it's 'cause I'm driving by, and don't have the hiker hunger <g>
