Who wants chocolate cake?

Thursday night: we stayed the night at Blackadar Camp, on the north side of the river at mile 17. Each day a different couple in our party was assigned kitchen duties. That meant cooking and cleaning for the 19 adults and teens in our party. Dinner was the start to our cycle. Propane fueled a pair of four burner stoves. We boiled a big pot of water, used a second vessel to heat chili that had been slow cooked at home then bagged, sealed and frozen. Our menu featured chili dogs, potato salad and home made chocolate cake. Big chests full of ice were stowed on each boat. Thanks to that, you could hardly call this roughing it.
