A crew of nine T21 scouts and our two Scoutmasters completed an epic trek at BSA’s most famous high-adventure base, Philmont Scout Ranch. The crew logged almost 60 miles of hiking in the Rocky Mountains of New Mexico while taking part in activities like horseback riding, rock climbing and rappelling, spar-pole climbing, roping, land navigation and geocaching, and forest conservation. They also made it to the top of Tooth of Time at almost 10,000 feet. Along the way they earned the 50 Miler Award, the Paul Bunyan Award and completed many requirements for Camping, Hiking and Backpacking merit badges while making memories that will last forever. We plan on going back in 2023.
