Re: [Philmont]: Vegetarian crew member

I had a vegetarian Scout on my 95 trek. Philmont will arrange special
meals upon request, that can be picked up at the commissary stops. I
have also heard that some V-Scouts I-camped themselves their food
packages upon arrival at Basecamp, but that is risky due to the
inconsistent nature of deliveries. So the Scout may need to carry some
supplemental food and cooking gear himself. The backcountry staff was
very supportive of our V-Scout, and gave him various items along the way.

Make sure the Ranch is kept well informed, and that all arrangements are
hammered out well in advance, and confirmed.
