Done all three, most disappointed in the Buffalo - did a week early one summer. The water is up too early for a week long for scouts. Hopefully things have changed, folks in the area were not friendly, downright hostile to folks on the river (some terrible stories). Don't know if the outfitters have gotten their stuff together yet.

Well, the dreams of topping Mt Phillips or Crossing the Tooth was nice for awhile....but back to the waiting list........
I know this is "Off-Topic" for Philmont, but does anyone have any experience in 5-7 day canoe trip on the Current River or Jacks Fork in MO? My PLC wants to do that as a Troop High Adventure Trip instead of NT or SeaBase.
