Ranger review: Mountain House -Turkey dinner casserole- at Jesse M. Honeyman State park

Campground review

This is the earliest in the season that I have camped here. I was surprised not to find a lot of families and kids around. On the other hand since this is the season that they open another entrance to the dunes, there was quite a bit more OHV noise.

The site I stayed in was the best yet! (259) It was nice and somewhat private, nestled against the hill, with few neighbors and the dune access trail just twenty feet away. The bathrooms were a little further away than the other sites I stayed, but were different. They were smaller and the showers were private offering 3 all gender and one ADA. The facilities were a bit aged but maintained well, considering the season.

While I was there I tried to find activities that I had yet to experience. I found there was another trail just off of the ADA paved trail, to Woahink lake. It was a fairly easy 2 mi. hike that would be just fine for healthy adventurous kids and had many nice views of the lake.

As a Ranger for The Dyrt, I have the privilege to tryout gear from time to time.

This is my review of the new Mountain House "Turkey dinner casserole"

https://www.mountainhouse.com/m/product/homestyle-turkey-dinner-casserole.html

As with all Mountain House meals one of the best features is making and eating the food right in its pouch, eliminating the need for cleanup. While these dinners are lightweight, they are also delicious and this meal doesn't disappoint.

The turkey had good mouth feel and you could taste the ingredients separately, but they come together nicely as a casserole. If you are one that likes to have your sides separate this might not be the meal for you. The flavor was better than expected! I say its as good as your friends mothers turkey dinner. This is another good meal from Mountain house and I highly recommend.
