[Philmont] fishing licenses

The caterpillar fishing method. I love it!

Miners Park to Black Mountain Camp is a beautiful stretch of trail.
The beavers have been very busy along the way. The fish are plentiful
and relatively easy to catch. The bigger fish are in the beaver ponds,
so if your fishermen caterpillar from beaver pond to beaver pond, they
will catch the best fish but they will be exhausted by the time they
reach Black Mountain.
