| Favorite Camp: Ponil |
| Ponil had showers, a Catina which served Root Beer, Branding and a trading post. |
| Worst Camp: Anasazi |
| Anasazi was boring. The water had to be treated with Iodine, Yuck!. Brian got sick at this camp. |
| Worst Thorn: Iodine Water |
| The iodine water had to sit for one hour after treatment and it tasted bad. |
| Best Rose: Real Water and Rain |
| Most of the other Philmont camps had good tasting water and I liked the rain in the middle of the day. |
| Favorite Trail Lunch: Tuna |
| The Lunch with the tuna was the best. |
| Favorite Trail Dinner: Macaroni and Cheese |
| My favorite food. |
| Favorite Trail Breakfast: Pop Tarts |
| There should have been more pop tarts. We only had them twice the whole Trek. |
| Favorite Activity: Burro Racing |
| I had never done the burro racing. Harlan was fun, David and I raced the burros. |
| If I went again I would bring... A CD player |
| I could have used one on the train trip to Philmont. |
| If I went again I would not bring... Extra Clothes |
| I took too many extra clothes. |
| Would I go again? Yes |
| It got me away from the city and into nature. We saw deer and turkeys. |
| Activities I would like to see on the next Trek: |
| Black Powder Rifle, Shotgun shooting, 30.6 rifle shooting and Burro racing |
