Lodge Treks are Back!

After an incredible first year, we are extremely excited to announce the second annual Lodge Trek program at Philmont Scout Ranch!

From July 4–14, 2027, 10 selected lodges will take on a 10-day, 9-night Philmont adventure focused on brotherhood, leadership development, personal growth, and the full backcountry experience. Each lodge crew will include 2 advisers (21+) and 6–8 youth.

An email containing all of the important details and interest form has been sent to each lodges’ key 3.

Our summer has just wrapped up here at Philmont! It was an exciting summer with many highs and many lows. Our last trek of the season partnered with the US Forest Service in the Carson National Forest, to build a bridge and resurface trails at the Shuree Ponds Day use area. They also got the unique opportunity to summit Little Costilla, Mt. Baldy, and the Tooth of Time in one trek.

We are so thankful to all that were apart of this summer and made it so memorable. We hope to see you out here at OATC in 2027!

Want to experience a high adventure base at a reduced cost and discover what the OA has to offer? Hike and build trails through the mountains at Philmont, paddle and portage through the Boundary Waters at Northern Tier, explore the ocean and serve on Big Munson Island at Sea Base, or tackle high-adventure activities and trail work at Summit Bechtel Reserve—all while building brotherhood with Arrowmen from across the country!

If you want to meet any of these foremen, there are still spots available. Register today to be apart of this life changing experience!

PS. Shout out to all of our volunteers that help make this program run. Some, but not all, are in the photos.
