| 2009 description: 'Start off with a taste of the old west and the thrill of shooting a high powered .30-06 hunting rifle using shells that you load, then its off for an evening at Cyphers Mine where gold panning and mining and the outrageous “stomp” are featured. Day 5 brings you to the top of Mt. Phillips for an awesome view of
Mt. Wheeler (New Mexico’s highest peak). Hike into Clear Creek, home of the Rocky Mountain Fur Company for black powder shooting and on to a restful night at Wild Horse. Crooked Creek homestead will offer you the opportunity to milk a cow. Your crew will hike to Beaubien for a two day layover that includes horse rides and a delicious chuck wagon dinner - real food! Learn the sport of fly fishing and don't miss the tour of Waite Phillips’ famous Lodge at Fish Camp. Your last staffed camp is Zastrow, site of Philmont’s high tech land navigation program, a Dutch oven dessert feast - more real food - and a "Rededication to Scouting" ceremony.' |
