[philmont] Interesting E-mail From Philmont

It just amazes me that people would go there thinking "Since I am here they have to let me go". I went in '05 (Trek 21 then) and the last thing I wanted was for them to say "You cannot go". What a let down to my crew and to my son. I worked hard to make sure that would not happen.

This is not new news. It happens every year. Unless you have been there, there is no way you can understand why they have to be like this until you make that first climb of altitude on the trail.
