    This 1963 Boy Scouts of America film looks at the different activities available at the Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. The Scouts enjoy rough trail hiking, camping, shooting, fishing, archery, cattle work, forestry, riding and learn about rocks, gold and the early history of the area. The film constantly alludes to the rugged natural setting that can bring everyone back in contact with nature and a romanticized past. There is continuous footage of cowboys herding cattle and people riding horses through picturesque mountain scenery.
    The Philmont Scout Ranch is a ranch located in Colfax County, New Mexico, near the village of Cimarron; it covers 140,177 acres (56,728 ha) of wilderness in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains on the east side of the Cimarron Range of the Rocky Mountains.

    I got to visit Philmont in 74, I was with a group that was traveling and we stopped for a few hours. The driver of our vehicle was an official with the Scouts, and our group got the grand tour of the camp. The scouts were cooking lunch, one group was making pizzas in a giant cast iron dutch oven... We got demonstrations of field skills, fire starting, shelter construction... They had to drag me away by my arm back to the van, I wanted to end the trip right there and stay awhile.

    What a well done film! I especially like the spiritual and life building aspects mentioned. I was a scout from 1969-72ish. I had the opportunity to go to Philmont, but regretfully didn't. When you were introduced to backpacking during youth, I feel the activity as well as nature stays with you. I'm so thankful for my time in scouts. I think it has something to do with the fact that I became a thru-hiker in my late 40's, and not slowing down in my 60's.

    When I went as a teenager, I don't think I fully understood what Philmont was. It was a neat experience to go camping somewhere outside of our typical area. And a trial of hiking 75+ miles in a week and a half. Now as an adult, I would give anything to be able to take off from work and do Philmont again. Cheers to the parents and adults who took these young men on these trips over the years. I see so many videos taken along the trail on TH-cam now. I wish they wouldn't allow smart phones on the trail. People are missing the point and the experience by not removing that part of their life when staying in this beautiful land.

    I saw this film, in ‘69, when I was 12, at a weekly troop meeting - it’s when I fell in love with Philmont. I finally made it there in ‘73. I’m still in love with the place.

    Been there. Done that. Expedition 704 Baker, 1964. Not too long after this film was shot. I especially remember the Army surplus bent-plywood pack frames we were issued. Weighed about 8 lbs empty.
    Also we had the latest innovation in lightweight camp gear, then: A cast-Aluminum dutch oven. About 12 lbs. Carried my BSA hand axe. Nobody had ever heard of portable campstoves like the Svea 123.
    My sleeping bag was also state-of-the-art -- for 1942. We hit the Monsoon rains head on. Showers every day. Mountains get cold at night, even in Summer. Had to learn that first hand. Silver dollar sized blisters...
    Damn, I had a great time.
    Too bad about the Kodacolor. All washed out.

    Eagle Scout, Was a assistant Scoutmaster for 17 years... I have been to Philmont... The troop in this film has home made equipment. Boy scouts used to make their equipment because of a lack of money...

    I know that there were problems with the Boy Scouts, but for the most part, it taught decent values and real-life skills.
    I never cared about getting badges, but I was very interested in learning skills that could help me throughout my life.
    Before I knew how to swim my dad and older brother thought it was a riot pulling me under the water. It was my Scout Master who actually taught me how to swim.
    Thanks, old Dave Brown for actually wanting me to become more capable.

    Camped at Philmont during this period. Traveled on a Grove River City bus from Butler, Pa. We stayed at army and air force bases. Took about 4 days to get there and 4 days to come home. Some of the bases Ft Ben Harrison, Air Force Academy, Ft Carson, Amarrillo Air Force Base, Ft Leonard Wood, Ft Riley. Still have my Philmont belt and buckle also my patch. Troop 16 Lyndora Pa sponsored by Armco Steel. Pioneer Trails Council.

    After watching this (and Canten Boy) I'd wished my parents had pushed me more towards Scouting.
    There were some eerie reflections to the Hitlerjugend in this video. I wonder how many of these scouts saw action in Southeast Asia five years later and how many came home.

      I visited Philmont as a boy in the 1980’s and this brought back memories. But I don’t remember the gold mine being a possible activity, and I would expect using rock hammers nowadays would be frowned on by the BSA.Thanks for putting it out there.
      I heard that wolves were once essentially eradicated from the area, but that there is a big controversy over a ranch neighbor to Philmont who is reintroducing them.

      @@PeriscopeFilm boo- I wonder who could possibly object. It obviously was a BSA film, and they must have owned the rights to their film- unless there was a segment with copyright material that was loaned to BSA with express reservations. -
      It would be nice if somehow the V.O. Could be separated from the copyright material, and some free use music, maybe from another part of the film could be dubbed in. And I know this would be incredibly expensive, but color correction and print clean up would really be nice for this film

      @@o.c.smithiii2626 we actually tried to select the "mute music only" option on TH-cam -- yes that's a thing! -- but it may not have worked properly. The reason that the music creates issues is that music rights are owned by both the authors of the tunes, and the people who perform them. So, it has nothing to do with the BSA or us, and everything to do with individuals and organizations that decide that they want to make claims on content showing up on TH-cam. As far as the color is concerned -- you may not be aware of this but our scanning artist Esteban does a restoration of color on films as we scan them. It's definitely a preliminary pass, as he is trained to create a color pass that allows further tweaking (usually in DaVinci Resolve or similar environments) by our stock footage clients. If you were to look at the original elements we own, you would see that it is entirely red faded to magenta and also faded stock. It's actually miraculous we're able to present what we did, given the condition of the original. Thanks for comment, please subscribe or visit us on Patreon.com/PeriscopeFilm
