2024 description: 'This itinerary highlights much of the South, including high peaks and frequent opportunities for wildlife viewing. Take the short
bus ride to the Webster Trailhead and hike to Arrowhead trail camp in the shadow of the iconic Tooth of Time. Your Ranger will
train you on skills you will need for the rest of your adventure before taking you through Clarks Fork and up to Cimarroncito,
where you can try out some climbing on natural rock formations. Cyphers Mine is up next, where you can tour the Contention
Mine, practice blacksmithing, gold panning and enjoy the famous Stomp. Begin your tour of Philmont's peaks with a hike to
Comanche Peak. Get your rest, enjoy the sunrise, and then tackle the highest peak in Philmont's South Country, Mount
Phillips. On the way down, visit the fur trappers at Clear Creek for a tomahawk throwing competition before following the
Rayado River to visit the Crooked Creek homestead. Your next day will take you through Apache Springs for 3D archery and a
tipi tour before continuing to Lost Cabins trail camp. Hit the trail early to allow plenty of time to learn the history of Rayado
Lodge at Fish Camp and try to catch a trout in the Rayado and Agua Fria Rivers. After traversing the ridge trail high above the
Rayado, you'll drop into the New Mexican Homestead at Abreu. Tend to the chickens and goats and reward yourselves with a
cold root beer at the cantina before heading to Bear Caves trail camp the next morning. Visit with the loggers of the
Continental Tie & Lumber Co. and try out their crosscut saws and broad-axes and enjoy their Company Meeting Campfire if
you get the chance. Look for the Tooth of Time as you make your way to Miners Park, where you can check out their amazing
climbing programs, under the guidance of Philmont's trained staff. Tooth Ridge is your next destination for the breathtaking
view from atop the Tooth of Time. Take a few minutes to look back over how far your crew has come in the past 10 days
before heading down the ridgeline to Base Camp on your last day to end this amazing adventure' |
