I hadn't heard about this. I'm glad to hear that Philmont is encouraging
adding God to the trek. However these requirements seem pretty lax to
me. If it were up to me, I would say it should be chapel service before
and after trek, crew devotion every night on the trail, and doing Grace
3X a day on the trail. There's over 30 opportunities to say Grace.
