[Philmont] Advisor Questions

>> From the other responses, it sounds like there are fewer places with
facilities in the Valle. Even in the south, however, you can have a
long day (say 9 miles or so) with no facilities, so you need at least
some capability to dig a cathole if needed. The plastic sierra shovel
is virtually weightless and having a few is not a big cost and makes it
easier to find one when impatiently needed. Just be careful not to run
out of toilet paper. We did one day due to it getting wet. Not a
pretty sight. <<
 
We assigned one crew member the responsibility of packing the TP and to
have it easily accessible on the trail. You don't want to have to
figure out who's carrying it, not for them to have to dig through their
pack for it when you needed it "yesterday." It was also that members
job to track when we ran low and to request more from the staff when we
needed. Like Don said, you don't want to run out.
