Itinerary Number 14 2013 PHILMONT ADVENTURE ITINERARY Challenging (maximum program time) - 69 miles This program intense trek covers a lot of ground in Philmont’s rugged North and Central Country. Start off by seeing the world’s only confirmed T-‐Rex track… it's right here in the North Ponil Valley! From there, watch a gorgeous sunset at House Canyon Camp and wake up to visit the fascinating petroglyphs left by the Ancestral Puebloan people at Indian Writings. Next, your crew will visit historic Ponil where you will test your roping skills, eat a chuckwagon dinner, enjoy a cantina show, and a cowboy breakfast before hiking to Dean Cow for rock climbing and rappelling. Work on a trail project with the Conservation Department at Harlan and camp at Ute Springs for the night. Enjoy the cool hike up Grouse and Sawmill Canyons, where you'll be able to focus on the wildflowers and aspens instead of the heat! At Sawmill, our world class .30- 06 reloading room and shooting range is guaranteed to be a highlight of your trek. From there, hike up to Comanche Peak Camp, but be sure to wake up early on the following morning as the sunrise to the east of camp Philmont's best! Next, the trek up Mt. Phillips will be challenging, but viewing Wheeler Peak, the Moreno Valley, and Baldy Mountain will be an unparalleled reward. Hike back over Comanche Peak and Big Red before descending to Comanche Pass and then to the Middle Fork Cimarroncito Creek. Tour Waite Phillips Hunting Lodge, then hike past Cimarroncito Reservoir and the Demonstration Forest. From Clarks Fork, your final test awaits… The Tooth of Time! Enjoy the peak and your last night on the trail before hiking into Base Camp.
