[philmont] Don't knock the poncho

My gear for a July 1965 trek included An army surplus bent plywood pack board rented from Philmont with a personal BSA Yucca pack An army surplus down sleeping bag An army surplus poncho that doubled as my ground cloth An “Explorer” tent issued by Philmont with no floor (single wall lightweight canvas) It rained often in the day and several times at night. We stayed dry. Larry. Sims Crew 444 Philmont Coordinator, Katy, TX 615-D1 and 615-D2 2007 718-G1 1965 (The Monsoons of ’65)
