[philmont] Camp Chairs at Philmont

I take my crazy creek everywhere and have taken it to philmont. It works on
logs, ground, bleachers, etc. Weights nothing and can double as a sleeping
pad if you need to. After lunch I used to unroll my crazy creek and nap on
it for a short break.
 
Stools may be nicer if you need off the ground, but I like the padding and
back support wherever I sit.

Subject: [philmont] Camp Chairs at Philmont

As an older Scouter (50+) going to Philmont for the first time, I was
thinking about including a camp chair in my backpacking gear. This would be
my one "luxury" item. Otherwise, it looks as if my pack weight will be in
the 20 to 25 pound range, with a fairly lightweight tent, bag and pack.
After some investigation, I have concluded that the SlingLite chair is the
best candidate, weighing in at about 18 ounces. Have any of you tried
carrying a chair on a Philmont trek? Is it worth the effort or a bad idea I
should just get over?
