Kevin, we were at Philmont last June on Itinerary 5. Due to drought conditions then, we'd only know the day before how available water was in the camps we would trek to. Some camps with showers disallowed them, some with springs might be dry.
Best bet is try to contact Philmont and ask availability for specific treks. From the weather channel looks like they're getting rain right now.
We generally had no problem with water, only having to carry extra into Wild Horse and Tooth Ridge camp.
Would be great to be at Philmont in the fall now.

Subject: [Philmont]: Camps with water
Son leaves a week from Friday for fall trek. He has to be involved in picking out th itenerary along with another scout that has been to Philmont before.
Can you folks that made a summer trek this year send me list of camps with water, this would help plan the itenerary for them. Last day they are planning on tooth ridge into base camp with a side hike Shaefers Peak, and the Tooth. I realize tooth ridge camp is dry, but it's been 2 years since I made a summer trek, and don't want to guess or rely on memory what has water, thanks.
