I highly recommend stopping for a sandwich at the High Mountain Café, Bakery & Deli in Government Camp. The word "sandwich" doesn't usually excite me, but these sandwiches are delicious, especially the hot ones. They also serve a variety of breakfast sandwiches. Unfortunately, they have been shortening their hours, since not many people stop there after skiing. They used to be open till 4 pm, then cut down to 3 pm, and now they close at 2 pm. But if you ski hard and get tired by 1 pm, come and try this delicious food. Or, ski down the ungroomed Glade Trail to Government Camp and have lunch here before taking the Mt.

She snapped at me that "I got what I ordered". I was shocked and politely explained what I had ordered. She looked around, found my correct sandwich laying on the counter in another bag and actually threw it at me. Another employee witnessed it and actually said "sorry" to me for her actions. I understand people have bad days but it was really crazy behavior. I then witnessed her be rude with another customer as I walked out. Its a shame, been going there for 7 years but...
