Troop 72 at Philmont 2016: Travel there
June 5-21, 2016, the Scouts of Troop72.com embarked on the greatest adventure in Scouting: PHILMONT!

Travel There (July 5-6, 2016): Chippewa Falls to Kansas

This is Part 1 of our troop's 17-day adventure to Philmont Scout Ranch in the Rocky Mountains of Northern New Mexico, where we backpacked 107 miles in 11 days.

On the way there, we drove the church van to Edgerton, Wisconsin, where we swam in the public pool and slept on the floor of Central Lutheran Church. It was especially nice to jump into that pool after we endured temperatures of 93 degrees F in the van, even with the windows open, since the AC was not working. :-/

The next morning we woke up at 5:00 a.m. and drove to Mendota, Illinois, where we caught the Amtrak to Chicago. We spent a few hours walking around with our Personal Tour Guide (and daughter of the Scoutmaster) the Amazing Alison Arneberg, then got on board for the 22-hour trip to Raton, New Mexico.

Here are a some photos I took with my new Canon 70D camera.
