I'm sure my son will make it to Philmont in a few years. The older scouts in his troop went to Sea Base in 2013 and are going to Northern Tier next week. They have a trip planned to Swamp Base in 2015 since they didn't get a spot for Philmont. They all sound like fantastic adventures.

He got pretty bored with Cub Scouts at times but did earn the Arrow of Light. They camped regularly and I tried to help him understand it was preparing him for boy scouts.
