The Seally Canyon Camp is located in the Valle Vidal.
Location and geography[]
The camp, like most others in the Valle, includes a yurt. Water is available via a water tank on a trailer.
Due to the lack of trails in the Valle, and because Seally Canyon is the southernmost Valle camp, crews often get lost in the area. Staff from Seally often put their training to use locating and assisting these crews. Seally Canyon is one of the most remote camps at Philmont, and has extremely limited vehicle access. It takes approximately 2 hours to reach Seally by vehicle from Base Camp.
There is a short 15 minute hike to the top of the ridge to look out over Baldy Mountain and Tooth of Time.
