RE: [Philmont]: Route selection

Coop's guide is $10 per advisor that uses it, not just $10. Still a Steal.
Wouldn't have done it any other way. You get an overall map when you get
your packet. Spend your money on extra sectionals. I bought the Ranger CD
and, until the bugs are worked out of it, you just have to be a technogeek
to get much enjoyment out of it. Not worth the $$ until they improve on it.
 
Dates on the sectionals and the overall are important. We "discovered" a
new trail that looked 2 or 3 years old. Our sectionals were dated 2001. We
had to triangulate and some other navigation in order to decide the right
trail. Fortunately, the quarter landed on the right side up :-)....

I strongly suggest the Philmont Advisor's Guide (Unofficial). Cooper Wright
will email you the guide in MS Word format for the ridiculously low price of
$10.00. There is a world of knowledge in the guide. I don't know if
Philmont would call the it endorsement, but there is a description of the
guide posted on the Philmont Staff Association website.
http://www.philstaff.com/philadguied.html . Cooper's email address is:
coopwright@aol.com
Don't forget to order an "Overall Philmont Map" from
www.toothoftimetraders.com. It's a great planning tool.
