All of them in 'main Philmont', but few/none in the Valle Vidal area
leased from the USFS, is my understanding.

What proportion of the Philmont campsites have bear bag cables present?
Out of my last five camping trips, I've only been able to hang a
satisfactory bear bag two times. (not enough branches, rope gets jammed
in trees, etc)

| If it has a smell that doesn't belong in the outdoors, bears MAY be
| tempted
| to investigate. If it smells like a stinky human, they usually don't
like
| that. Who wants a bear investigating their tent in the middle of the
night?
|
| We put everything (duct tape, batteries, film, water bottles that had
| anything but water in them, ever) all up in the bear bag. Why take
the
