OK we have a new dinner January 19. A full moon feast again but, no chairlift ride. This one is for hardy folks only. You have to hike, skin or snowshoe up to Black Mountain Lodge. Chef Rybak's German menu includes trout rouladen, sauerbraten, chef carved pork with sauerkraut and spaetzle, apple strudel, and a pear tart with caramel sauce. I am pretty comfortable saying it will be good.
That night is the full moon. Should be spectacular. We had a small event at Black Mountain Lodge Thursday night. I rode Black Mountain Express down at about 9:30. Even though the moon wasn't full, the lighting on Grizzly Peak and Black Mountain and Lenawee Mountain was extraordinary. Our German feasters are in store for a quite a show.
