PHILMONT... Cimmeron New Mexico

http://www.scouting.org/philmont/main.shtml

Premier outdoor Scouting experience. 10's of thousands of acres in the Sangre De Christo Mtn range. (OH, that translates to "Blood Of Christ" dosen't it?) Land was donated by the Phillips family to the Boy Scouts in perpetuity.

My troop has used 'phone-bank and speed dials" to get on the list for "next years" slots. Usually treks are filled within minutes of the opening for the seasons reservations.

Ahhh Philmont. I was a part of crew 615-P last summer. Our crew did 85 miles visiting places like Baldy, Cimmeron Ceto, Pablano Ruins, Tooth of Time. We save mule deer, bear, rattle snakes.I would not trade the experience for anything!
