[Philmont] RV vs Flying

Susan,
 
All kidding aside, your question is somewhat broad. Is your group just
stopping by to visit the Villa, Rayado, the Seton Museum and the Trading Post, or
are you part of a registered crew?
 
One person isn't traveling alone with five scouts, I hope?
 
To go hiking in the Philmont backcountry, your group must be registered on a
Philmont activity such as PTC, Cavalcade, standard trek, etc.
 
If your question is "We have a trek, but where do we park?" there is a
large lot which will accommodate your RV, as well as their friends, the buses.
AFAIK, no special permit is required to park there. You would still sleep in
tent city, not in the RV.
 
If you are attending the PTC, there is a trailer RV area just south of Tent
City South (or is it west?). No hookups.
 
If your question is "We are on a road trip and want to stop for day visit;
is there an RV park nearby?" Yes. Cimarron has two RV parks: City:
Cimarron NM
State: New Mexico
Zip: 87714 CIMARRON INN & RV PARK
... ...
Phone: (505) 376-2268

Good luck in that RV.

Has anyone taken an RV to Philmont before and if so, is there some special
license you have to get to take 5 Boy Scouts?
