Being PREPARED for a Philmont Expedition is IMPORTANT!  Let our trained volunteers & staff at D-Bar-A Scout Ranch help you by selecting 1 of 2 AMAZING Training Trails.

Backpacking - get ready for your trip with gear advice, demonstrations, time on the trail, and endurance building during your weekend with the experienced D-A staff.  

Cavalcade - practice being on the trail with a horse! Gear advice, demonstrations, time on the trail, and endurance training are part of your weekend experience.  

Both experiences will be Bring-your-own-Tent! However, we will provide trail food and snacks!
