Dan and Karen Ashton

Dan and Karen Ashton met at Philmont in 1977, and recently celebrated 31 years of marriage.  Their story is untraditional and adventurous - much like the paths we traverse in the rugged backcountry hills.  The couple shares stories as though we were casually grouped around a campfire, like old friends do.  Philmont Experience Dan:1973 & 1974 – Trek participant1975 – Kit Carson Man Trek1976 – CHQ Dining Hall1977 – Beaubien CookPhilmont Experience Karen:1975, 77, & 78 – Trek participant1979 – CHQ Trading Post1983 – PTC Trading Post Assistant Manager1984 – PTC Tranding Post Manager2019 – Museum DocentNotable Mentions:Henry WicksenCharlie AldredgeDoug & Betty PalmerBill TateHans PetersonRod TaylorSteve ZimmerDave KennekeThe OttsDean TooleySupport the show
