Philmont - Saturday

After packing up, saying good-byes to new friends we headed across the street to Philmont Base Camp and checked in, bought our staff uniform shirts and headed up to Baldy Town in a four-wheel suburban. After a 35 min ride on the highway we hit the dirt road and for the next hour we climbed over 3,000 ft. in elevation on backcountry roads.


Tall Timbers District Key 3: Craig, Brett and Bill


That's Baldy Mountain ahead, below timberline and just above the pine trees in front is Baldy Town. We still have a ways to go.


Time out for a photo op. Machinery required for road maintenance.
