I live out here, couple of hundred miles north of Philmont and never go
anywhere without a base layer, middle layer, fleece and light wind jacket.
Slept at 11,000 feet last night ok, night be fore it was cold!

Subject: RE: [Philmont]: cold weather gear
> I will certainly be urging my troops to be fully prepared, but I'm
anticipating some push back from a few who will say "all those cold-weather
stories are from folks who went to Philmont in June - we're going the end of
July (July 28), and it is hotter then - I can leave the fleece at home".

> What sayeth the wisdom of the list? Does the onset of the Philont monsoon
season in mid to late July offset the generally warmer temperatures, such
that the need for cold-weather gear is no less than it was early in June?
