As long as your gear meets the minimum standards, and you don't run
afoul of any of the special Philmont edicts (e.g., no one man bivvies
for campers, etc.), you can bring literally everything on the Philmont
(mandatory) Crew equipment list (which the Ranger will have). They
(Philmont) will be only too happy to avoid the wear and tear on their
gear. Those Crews that make a serious effort to go light (< 40 pounds
average per trekker) or ultralight (< 30 pounds average) usually bring
most or all their own gear.
