[Philmont]: RE: Waiting List

If you are looking for an alternative backpacking adventure near
Philmont, consider the Pecos Packer program run by the South Plains
Council.

I've heard good things about these backpacking program operated by the
Longs Peak Council.

Perhaps even tougher than Philmont is the Fourteener Challenge, one of
several backpacking options offered by the Rocky Mountain Council's
Packard High Adventure Base.
