 We awoke early in the morning to get ready to leave tent city. |
 We waited for our bus to arrive at the Philmont Welcome Center. |
 We began our trek at the Ponil Turnaround in northern Philmont. |
 After a quick review of map and compass skills we were ready to begin. |
 A few horse joined us at the Ponil turnaround. |
 Our ranger discussed sanitation knowledge inside a red roof inn. |
 Hi ho, hi ho, it's a 2 mile stretch of hiking we go... |
 Our first campsite was located at Dean's Cut-Off Camp. |
 Our ranger discusses more Philmont knowledge after camp was set up. |
 For some reason we were pretty tired after those first couple of miles of hiking. |
 Our camp at Dean's Cut-Off looks clean, well organized, and downright livable. |
 We spent the rest of the day and evening at Ponil Camp and the cantina. |
 A couple of guys tried their skills at playing a duet on the piano at the Ponil cantina. |
 The cantina was a great place to relax, play some cards, and visit with each other. |
 Yeah, yeah. When your advisor has a camera you know there will be a lot of pictures taken. |
 This was the last picture taken of the Troop 68 Scouts before they went their separate ways. |
