2009 description: 'A well prepared crew can choose this 83 mile super strenuous trek that starts in the historic North Ponil
where you will see the world’s only known T-Rex track, visit century old petroglyphs and follow the route
of the old Cimarron and northwestern railroad up to Whiteman Vega in the beautiful Valle Vidal. On
your way, take time to participate in search and rescue training and conservation at Seally Canyon.
Then it’s off to Rich Cabins, one of Philmont’s very cool homesteading camps, before hiking to Ponil for
western lore with boot branding and two chuck wagon meals of REAL food. Rock climbing and
rappeling round out this great itinerary!' |
