  About Philmont Scout Ranch

Philmont Scout Ranch in Cimarron, New Mexico provides an unforgettable adventure along its hundreds of miles of rugged trails. Program features combine the best of the Old West—horseback riding, burro packing, gold panning, chuckwagon dinners, and interpretive history—with exciting challenges for today—rock climbing, burro racing, mountain biking, and rifle shooting—in an unbeatable recipe for fast-moving outdoor fun.

   About BSA's Venturing Program

The Venturing program is a youth development program of the Boy Scouts of America for young men and women who are 14 years of age OR 13 years of age and have completed the eighth grade and under 21 years of age. Many Venturers are dual-registered in Boy Scout and Girl Scout troops in addition to Venturing crews.

"You have survived your cancer treatment! Congratulations on getting to this point. You have won a significant victory in your fight. One of the things I enjoyed after my own treatment was being in the outdoors, but I was looking for adventure. After my own Philmont trek, I knew that I wanted to share this special adventure with other cancer survivors."
