2012 description: 'This program intense trek follows rushing streams, discovers mountain meadows, and traverses lofty peaks across Philmont’s South and Central Country. You will start with a search and rescue mission that will require your crew to work together at Carson Meadows. You will then hike west to the “Notch,” overlooking both Rayado and Bonito Canyons. Stellar views of Rayado, Crater, and Lookout Peaks will be seen from the south side of Rayado Canyon. Enjoy Fish Camp just like Waite Phillips, as you fish the banks of the Rayado and Agua Fria Rivers. From there, your crew will spend two days in some of the most pristine country the southwest has to offer at Apache Springs. The hike to and stay at Wild Horse is guaranteed to be memorable, as it is one of our most beautiful trail camps. Booming .50 caliber black powder rifles await you at Clear Creek. Next, the trek up Mount Phillips will be challenging, but seeing the sunset over Wheeler Peak and the Moreno Valley will be an unparalleled reward. Enjoy gold mining, blacksmithing, and panning at Cypher’s Mine before climbing several new routes at Cimarroncito. Visit the Hunting Lodge, Demonstration Forest, and Clark’s Fork before ascending the Tooth of Time on your way into Base Camp.'
