Yes, epi-pens and inhalers MUST be kept immediately available at all times. My understanding is that the last youth fatality on the ranch was a scout who had an asthma attack during the night and his inhaler was in the bear bag.

Our Ranger instructed us to put immediate use medications; epi pins, inhalers in a boot with a sock with it. You don't want to be getting your "Oops Bag" down in the middle of the night for an emergency.

We have a crew headed to Philmont in 2007! All of us are first timers. I had a discussion with the crew the other day about bringing a set of clothes you only use for sleeping. Furthermore, I explained the idea is to keep very little in your tent besides the sleeping clothes, sleeping bag and sleeping pad. If it was used on the trail or while cooking/eating it should not be in the tent.
Then we had some questions about exceptions. The specific questions included camp shoes, flashlight, water bottle (not used for flavored drinks), and a stocking cap used outside of the tent. Can anyone provide the hard and fast rules as well as some common sense guidance.
