Get Prepared For A Backpacking Adventure That Will Be The Highlight Of Your Scouting Career!

We’ll be hiking at least 50 miles along rugged, rocky trails in the mountains of New Mexico. Along the way, we will participate in programs that combine the best of the old west—horseback riding, burro packing, gold panning, chuck wagon dinners, and interpretive history—with exciting challenges for today—rock climbing, burro racing, mountain biking, and rifle shooting—in an unbeatable recipe for fast-moving, outdoor fun. It is truly a wonderful experience and something that won’t ever be forgotten.

We anticipate the all-inclusive fee to be an estimate: $2900. This includes crew equipment, supplies, training treks, transportation to and from New Mexico, Philmont fees, and custom t-shirts. Final price depends on airfare and other things. Partial scholarships may be available.

Requirements: All participants must be registered members of BSA. Youth must be at least 14 years old by July 23, 2022. Adult advisors must be at least 21 years of age. All participants must be physically fit as evidenced by the Philmont health and medical record parts A, B, & C. Attendance is expected at all training events (one weekend/month starting in April 2022). Schedule to be announced.

ALL NEW:  We are offering 3 choices:

  • Register as a youth and be part of a council provisional crew.
  • Register as an adult advisor and be part of a council provisional crew.
  • Register your troop or unit with your exclusive crew.
    • It’s a full crew of 12, including 3 or 4 adult advisors and 9 or 8 youth.
    • The price includes all trainings, travel, touring, and more.
    • The cost/person is the same for all, both exclusive unit crews and provisional crews.

If a troop or unit want their own exclusive crew, the crew leaders are responsible for all registrations. Unit exclusive crews are available only until April 15, 2021.

Registration for individuals will close on September 15, 2021.
