[Philmont]: Back-Country Trading Posts, & Ponil Cantina

Pholks,
Please tell me about Philmont's backcountry trading posts, and the Cantina at Ponil.
I understand that the trading posts are located at same places as commissaries; they sell film, batteries, postcards, stamps, replacement items like tent stakes, etc; and food items are limited - trail mix but no "junk food".

What is available at the Ponil Cantina, and what does it cost?

Would $20 for a Scout to take into the backcountry be an appropriate amount?
