Best out experience was probably at pic related. In the Mid 2000s the BSA rented out a a hunting reserve in the New Mexico desert as a satellite camp of Philmont. You showed up at the base camp, they gave you a map, GPS and a guide (Who was really only there in case you fucked up and vanished into the brush while underway after the first day) . They dropped you off and told you to show up at an outpost in 4 days for resupply after which you had another couple days to hike to a pickup point. Virtually no trails, limited water, and some of the most beautiful night skies I've ever seen.
