This is the mixing bowl of the Category Philmont Pictures. I throw in all the photos, stir them up (it's like twirling a lasso, only upsidedown), and pull out all the ones a can categorize. This is what's left over.

peak.jpg
I'm not certain where this picture was taken, but I believe that it came from immediately outside of Copper Park campsite. That would put this also on the day before we went up Baldy.

biglake.jpg
This is a large lake that was seen from the peak of Baldy, the same lake that we had driven by on the way into camp almost a week before. It was also a reminder of how high we had climbed...

clouds.jpg
Once you reach the very peak of Baldy the entire sky opens up above you. These are the clouds that seem so near from the highest point Philmont has to offer.

baldytown.jpg
This picture was taken from Baldy Town, the day after climbing Baldy, it was a great location, because not only could you get a great shot of Baldy, but you could see the Tooth of Time, our finishing point, on the horizon.

A picture I took looking out over tent city/town with the Tooth of Time in the background. It's a nice shot, although the colors seem a bit flat.

I could go on forever. But I think you get the basic idea. You can find most pictures in the other sections of the archive.
