RE: [Philmont]: Philmont// trip costs.

The two times I have been to Philmont, we went straight there on the train
and back. Another troop from San Diego makes a BIG triip out of it. They
are gone for over 3 weeks.

Tucson
El Paso, TX
White Sands Nat. Monument
Roswell, NM
PHILMONT trek
Air Force Academy
Royal Gorge, Colo
Mesa Verde, Colo
Four Corners
Monument Valley, Arizona (lots of movies were filmed here)
Lake Powell
Grand Canyon
LAS Vegas, Nevada (and a Hotel stay)

They camp or stay at alot of military bases, except the last night in Las
Vegas.
