We arrived a day early in 2002. The boys had a chance to visit the Tooth of Time Traders and get to know the base camp before the big push the next day. Even got to meet our Ranger the evening before. It worked out great for us.

Subject: [Philmont]: Shipping Coleman XPert Stoves

Wow, I sure am ready to go to Philmont - July 2.

I am the guy who asked about Coleman stoves. Please remember Coleman XPert stoves don't ship with any fuel or fuel tank. Jim Moss wrote, "It is against the law to take any combustible or container that has ever held a combustible on a commercial flight. It always has been against the law, 911 created the need to enforce it." An XPert stove is not a combustible or a container. We buy the fuel and container at Philmont. I got the message to ship the stoves to avoid any hassle. (I too am an attorney, the Department of Homeland Security is my client. I know the hassles of that bureaucracy, and I know not to mess with those guys or their lawyers.) My problem there is that we are doing shake down hikes in June right up to our trip. We love these stoves. I will figure it out. Thanks.

How about this question, can anyone recommend arriving at Philmont a day early, sleeping there and buying an extra breakfast, as compared to spending that night at the Saint James Hotel in Cimarron? We will arrive there about 7 pm. We received an e-mail yesterday from Philmont that almost encouraged coming on in to Philmont, which has not been our prior practice. Arriving at Philmont early would sure make check-in easy.

15 days -

Thanks, Tony
