RE: [Philmont]: cold weather gear

Our troop does a lot of backpacking in the mountains. We don't need to
convince anyone to bring their fleece. The unpredictability of the weather
and "Be Prepared" should convince you to take it. If anything, I would
expect storms to be more frequent and more intense later in the summer.

BTW- Our council contingent arrived at Philmont on Sunday: 704-G-(1-9).
Anyone meeting up with 704-G7, the Venturing Crew contingent, say hello to
my wife (Cindy) and daughter (Robyn). They are on Trek #25.
