RestaurantGround & Toasted
Tangy sourdough with crackly crust; flaky chocolate croissants steal the show.

Red Dirt Diner sits with red cliff views as the burgers fire up. The Cowboy Burger bites with a heavy chew from twin bison patties, smoky bacon, and onion rings, finished with a bold BBQ tang. The Vegetarian Black Bean Burger stays savory with pickled onions and cowboy sauce, while the Cowboy Corn adds a fried, creamy crunch. Casual, with a scenery payoff that makes the bite feel earned.
Skip the ordinary burger and go straight for the Cowboy Burger—double bison patties, crisp bacon, and BBQ tang. For beer, order a local pale ale.
Post-hike HQ. It is casual, scenic, and welcoming; bring the family and leave the laptop at the door.
Walk-in only; expect potential waits in peak season.
EAT HERE IF: you crave a hearty burger with a view. SKIP IF: you need reservations or you’re in a rush.
