| 2026 description: 'Focusing primarily on the Baldy Region, this 12-day itinerary gives your crew ample time to explore Philmont's North Country.
Enjoy rock climbing at Dean Cow and learn about logging with the Continental Tie & Lumber Company at Pueblano. Prepare to
summit Baldy and discover what mining was like in this iconic region in the early 1900s. Mileage is relatively low on this trek to
allow your crew plenty of time to take advantage of a mix of high adventure and living history programs. There is quite a bit of
elevation gain in this itinerary, so be sure your crew is physically prepared and ready for an early start on summit day!' |
