Today Arizona Duff joins the show.  She discusses her first experience on trek, navigating the fundamental challenges and shifts that occur while on the trail.  Namely - several moments at Cypher's Mine where she began to feel the love of the Philmont staff family, as they invited her onto the stomp stage to play a tune.  Fast forward to 2018 - Arizona examines her journey in Timber Stand Improvement and becoming a certified Sawyer.  The experience grew her appreciation for the work it takes to be good stewards of this land we all love and share.Today, Arizona is working towards a PhD studying the history of work and labor music. She praises the Philmont music culture as a tool to share - not only history, but also encourage staff and participants to process feelings.  Philmont Experience:2014 - Regular Trek (South Country) 2015 - Rayado (1st session) 2016 - Hired TBA, Assigned PC Abreu 2017 - Ranger 1 2018 - Cypher's Mine / TSI Sawyer 2019 - CD French Henry 2020 - Hired as CD Pueblano (COVID)2021 - Hired as CD Pueblano (Had to decline due to family medical needs) Notable Mentions:Claire FickeBernard / AlexKatie GarrettMaggie McCullochJenna TrioneMarie MontegeauLauren Wendell ThomasMichael BrownPaul FrenchTucker BakerTrevor Lombardi Anna WashburneSara KopsaEmily BergmanAmber HollumBailey ColsonElizabeth DoyleAnna KruneKevin BeckerSpencer HarshRachel HennegBrian StokesJake TrioneAnne MaryDrew ChapmanRegina WalkerAdam GravesJessie NelsonKeagan FingerColleen McCullochEllyn Washburne RagerWill GarrisonEvan Stark DykemaSupport the show
