2009 description: 'A super strenuous, but exciting itinerary awaits the well prepared crews on this 86 mile trek. Your crew can conquer most of Philmont’s major peaks, all over 10,000 feet. Included are Bonito Peak, Big Red, Mt. Phillips, Comanche Peak and Baldy Mountain. A remote wilderness camping experience is provided while hiking much of the Philmont territory. Time for program opportunities is limited. However, your crew may enjoy rock climbing, western lore, boot branding, logging skills and archaeology on this super strenuous hike.'

You will participate in western lore at Ponil with two chuck wagon meals, horse rides, and boot branding followed by .30-06 shooting at Sawmill before hiking into base camp via the Tooth of Time.'
