On April 2 we posted the recipe for the Mexican Corn Casserole of the High Desert Trail Riders Back Country Horsemen Association by Lynn Dwyer. April 6 brought you Brenda Cordonnnier’s Sour Cream Beef or Chicken Enchiladas. Today we are going to feature
Carole Hopkins Camp Apple Crisp. As mentioned previously we experienced these delightful dishes at Fort Kalamath located on the road to Crater Lake. The guardhouse (museum) exhibits fort relics, pictures and has a small gift shop. It’s impressive, but the volunteers and members of the High Desert Trail Riders Back Country Horsemen Association are fantastic. They have the wisdom, knowledge and love of their country that is more than evident. They do so much to keep trails open and safe, and teach horse packing and wilderness skills. It was delightful meeting you.
