2022 Trek 12-19

Rugged; Approximately 60 miles; Maps required: south; No KMZ data available
Trek History: New as 19 in 2019; 12-19 in 2020-22

This rugged trek will let your crew hike, shoot, ride, and climb your way into Base Camp via the Tooth of Time! Begin your journey from historic Rayado Rancho on the Santa Fe Trail. Then, enjoy the homestead of a historic New Mexican family at Abreu before shifting gears to learn about wilderness medicine at Carson Meadows. Tour Rayado Lodge at Fish Camp to discover why Waite Phillips enjoyed spending so much time in the backcountry, tie a fly and give fly fishing a try. Next, your crew will shoot 3-D archery targets and explore Jicarilla Apache life at Apache Springs, ending the day with a spectacular sunset. Visit the homesteaders at remote Crooked Creek on your way to Comanche Creek Camp. Continue on for a visit to the Rocky Mountain Fur Co. at Clear Creek before making your ascent of Mount Phillips. This is Philmont's second highest peak, and once you are at the peak, the views of the Moreno Valley, Wheeler Peak, and Baldy Mountain will leave lasting memories for your crew! From there, enjoy the view from Big Red, then hike to Phillips Junction for a resupply before heading up to Beaubien for branding, roping, a chuckwagon dinner, a cowboy campfire, conservation, and horse riding down one of the most beautiful canyons the southwest has to offer. Hike over Trail Peak to see the wreckage of a B-24 Liberator that crashed in 1942. Feel free to stop by and work with the loggers of the Continental Tie & Lumber Co. at Crater Lake and try out their crosscut saws or broad axes. Rock climb and rappel at Miners Park before your last night on the trail at Tooth Ridge Camp. Rest up and prepare for the final challenge...the Tooth of Time! Hike in via Tooth Ridge and celebrate your accomplishment.
