We only heard from Maxwell once about 7 or so days into the trek. He said everyone was making it fine and getting along. Can’t ask for more than that!

I think the last day of hiking was the longest and hardest – but they reached some cool peak and the views were worth it!

They stayed a night at base camp after the trek before traveling back to Denver to fly home.

They finally made it home about 9pm on July 4th! We had quite the welcoming crew waiting for them!

I am incredibly proud of every one of these boys. I hope they realize what an accomplishment this trek was.

I am continually grateful for Boy Scouts and the leadership, independence, responsibility, and – most importantly – friendships it has developed! Well done boys!

Would love to hear from you! 3 Comments

Philmont

July 15, 2026

After many months in planning – almost a year to be exact – Maxwell and 8 other scouts and 3 dads headed off to trek Philmont Scout Ranch. I don’t now that anyone really knew what all they were getting into but I am so proud of this crew and know they made memories that will last a lifetime.

Ready to fly to Denver and then travel on down to New Mexico!

Arrival at base camp and getting ready to head out on the 9 day 50+ mile trek!

Off they go!

I don’t know the full details of what all they did along the way but there were various stops and checkpoints but they slept on the trail every night, carried all their food, and logged lots of miles!
