Message:: [QUOTE="yakpoo, post: 1283853, member: 18157"]Philmont was a great experience! I still keep in touch with some of the guys from the trip. Our trip was from July 27th to August 10th. There was an old copper mine on the shoulder of Mt. Baldy, but we weren't allowed to explore. Did you go to the top of Mt. Baldy (12K feet)? ...spectacular views!! We camped out on the top of Mt. Philips (10K feet) on the 2nd of August. When we woke up, we were covered in two (2) feet of snow...unbelieveable! Once we got below the tree line the temperature was back up in the 70s. The most amazing thing about the trip was that we were probably the last group of people in the civilized world to know that Gerald Ford was the new President! ...quite a trip.[/QUOTE]
